Design/methodology/approach Through simulation of employees’ safety voice activities, enterprises’ production activities, enterprises’ safety activities, an experiment platform is built. The experiment introduces external variable of labor resource and sets four experimental situations considering whether labor resource is sufficient and whether employees’ value is significant.

When there is sufficient labor supply, employee safety voice cannot improve the safety level of enterprises; when there is short of labor and employee safety voice is strong, safety level can be effectively improved.

Originality/value This fully provides that under the circumstances of disappearing demographic dividend in China, improving employees’ safety awareness and reasonably using their safety voice can boost SMEs to enhance safety level.

Organizations need to develop as well as strengthen their employment relations in order to improve not only their performance, but also their competitiveness. Despite the importance of employment relations to organizations, the literature reveals there is not much information on how companies practice employment relations. The limited information has resulted from lack of emphasis on the important role of employment relations in organizations. This paper specifically attempts to address this issue by providing insights into six important employment relations practices that can help sustain the performance of organizations. The six practices were identified based on the review of the literature and findings of previous studies.
