“…The study findings further supported that mindful organizing has a direct effect on both safety compliance and safety participation, and the mediating role of mindful organizing between agility and safety participation has also been supported. The direct effect of mindful organizing is consistent with the prior literature [ 13 , 16 , 17 ], which provides further efficacy to the predictability of mindful organizing for safety performance. Here, it is worthwhile to mention that the number of hazards that prevail in different forms for healthcare workers at their workplace is enormous, e.g., chemical, biological, radiological, and physical.…”

“…Based on these arguments and in congruence with the prior literature [ 9 , 15 , 16 ], it would be valuable to relate mindful organizing to the objective indicators of safety performance (safety compliance and safety participation) amongst nursing staff, thus the following hypotheses are formed to be tested:…”

“…Mindful organizing helps individuals to uncover small anomalies that can lead to catastrophic outcomes [ 15 ]. Five inter-related processes of mindful organizing (preoccupation with failures, commitment to resilience, reluctance to simplify instructions, sensitivity to operations, and deference to expertise) help individuals to make collective sense and foresee possible abnormalities and their anticipated outcomes [ 16 ]. The prior literature advocated mindful organizing as the main reason for error-free operations of high-reliability organizations (HROs) over an extensive period, even when accidents are inevitable in those systems [ 11 , 14 ].…”

This study aimed to assess the impact of workforce agility on private hospital nursing staff’s safety behavior with the mediating role of mindful organizing. This study was cross-sectional. A self-administered questionnaire was used to collect data from 369 nursing staff. The structural equation modeling (SEM) technique was used to check the internal consistency, convergent validity, discriminant validity, and hypotheses testing. For mediation analysis, the bootstrapping technique was used. Our findings suggested that workforce agility is the possible predictor of mindful organizing, as all of these dimensions have a positive impact on mindful organizing. Reference to safety performance sub-dimensions, proactivity, adaptability, and resilience had a positive significant impact on (a) safety compliance, and proactivity had a positive impact on (b) safety participation. Further, mindful organizing was also found to be positively associated with safety performance. Evidence for mediation between workforce agility and safety performance was also observed. Proactivity, adaptability, and resilience can enhance safety performance for the nursing staff. Workforce agility can also help the organization to attain mindful organizing, which will help them to achieve operational excellence, whereas in the past, high-reliability organizations were mainly found practicing mindful organizing. This study demonstrated the key impact of workforce agility and mindful organizing on safety behaviors directly and indirectly.

“…Mindful organizing. The scale used to measure mindful organizing is 9-items validated Spanish version of the Vogus and Sutcliffe's (2007) original scale (Renecle et al, 2020). Some sample items are: "When discussing emerging problems with co-workers, we usually discuss what to look out for", "we talk about mistakes and ways to learn from them", "when crisis occurs, we rapidly pool our collective expertise to attempt to resolve it."…”

Mindful organizing (also known as collective mindfulness) is a collective capability that allows teams to anticipate and swiftly recover from unexpected events. This collective capability is especially relevant in high-risk environments where reliability in performance is of utmost importance. In this paper, we build on current mindful organizing theory by showing how two front-line communication and participatory conditions (perceived safety for upward dissent and climate for employee engagement) interact to predict mindful organizing. We shed light on the controversy around mindful organizing's effect on team's subjective experience at work by showing that it leads to greater team job satisfaction and thus lowers individual turnover intentions. These relationships were tested using a time-lagged design with two datacollection points using a sample of 47 teams within the nuclear power industry.

“…Mindfulness can further strengthen self-control and mental functioning by fostering open attention and awareness to present realities and experiences. One mindfulness-based intervention has been shown to increase self-control [ 60 ]. In the aspects of positive and objective facing, attention control, acceptance and non-judgment, mindfulness can effectively relieve the depletion of self-control and improve the level of self-control.…”

Objective: This study investigated the effects of mindfulness meditation on doctors’ mindfulness, patient safety culture, patient safety competency, and adverse events. Methods: We recruited 91 doctors from a hospital in China and randomized them to mindfulness meditation group (n = 46) and a waiting control group (n = 45). The mindfulness meditation group underwent an 8-week mindfulness meditation intervention, while the control group underwent no intervention. We measured four main variables (mindfulness, patient safety culture, patient safety competency, and adverse event) before and after the mindfulness meditation intervention. Results: In the experimental group, mindfulness, patient safety culture and patient safety competency were significantly higher compared with those of the control group. In the control group, there were no significant differences in any of the three variables between the pre-test and post-test. Adverse events in the experimental group were significantly lower than in the control group. Conclusions: The intervention of mindfulness meditation significantly improved the level of mindfulness, patient safety culture and patient safety competency. During the mindfulness meditation intervention, the rate of adverse events in the meditation group was also significantly lower than in the control group. As a simple and effective intervention, mindfulness meditation plays a positive role in improving patient safety and has certain promotional value.
