The purpose of this study is to develop and validate a simple unsafe behavior checklist to assess the extent of unsafe behavior among workers in an industrial setting. The checklist was developed using Focus Group Interview (FGI) and Analytical Hierarchy Process (AHP) analysis methodology. Preliminary testing was conducted with an unspecified sample and the correlation between unsafe behavior and accident experience was validated. The analyzed and compared the correlation between the type of unsafe behavior and accident experience and demonstrated the suitability of the unsafe behavior checklist. A risk sensitivity and risk-taking checklist was employed to identify five types of unsafe behavior. This study concludes that the unsafe behavior checklist can be used to predict accident concerns among workers with high types of dangerous behavior. This can help improve unsafe behavior and reduce the frequency of incidents. Therefore, the “Unsafe behavior Checklist” developed in this study can be used as an early indicator of the extent to which workers are aware of dangers in industrial workplaces in order to prevent accidents.
