“…According to the interpretivist approach, safety culture is seen as a complex and emergent phenomenon which is resistant to interventions or training. From the functionalist perspective, Henriqson et al () define safety culture as something an organisation “has.” This approach suggests that safety culture can be improved by changing individuals behaviours, values and beliefs (Henriqson et al, ). Similarly, for safety climate there has been a lack of agreement on what the term means.…”

Safety culture in health care teams: A narrative review of the literature

Aim Explore the recent literature to examine the factors that affect safety culture within health care teams. Background Health care organisations must understand and improve their safety culture. However, safety culture is a complex phenomenon which interacts with a myriad of factors, making it difficult to define, measure and improve. Evaluation A comprehensive search strategy was used to search four major databases. Peer‐reviewed which were published in English between 2006 and 2017 and presented research studies related to safety culture in health care teams were included. A narrative analysis was undertaken. Key issues Issues relevant to the definition, measurement and improvement of safety culture, the impact of teamwork and communication on safety culture, the role of leaders and accountability are explored. Conclusion The above themes inform our understanding of developing, measuring and sustaining safety culture in health care teams. However, further research is warranted to accurately understand how to measure and improve safety culture. Implications for nursing management To support a safety culture, initiatives to facilitate effective communication between nurse practitioners and other health care professionals must be introduced. Nurse managers should adopt leadership strategies that will support nurses’ psychological safety and create a just culture.

“…Second, these six types of risks are used as first grade indexes, which are then refined to second grade indexes through an on-site investigation and a literature review [10][11][12][13][15][16][17][18][19][29][30][31][32][33][34][35][36][37] and related laws and regulations. The laws and regulations include the "Mineral Resources Law of the People's Republic of China" [38], "Coalbed Methane Industry Policy" [39], "Safety Production Law of the People's Republic of China" [40], and "Hazardous Chemicals Safety Management Regulations" [41].…”

A Risk Assessment Model of Coalbed Methane Development Based on the Matter-Element Extension Method

et al. 2019

Coalbed methane development represents a complex system engineering operation that involves complex technology, many links, long cycles, and various risks. If risks are not controlled in a timely and effective manner, project operators may easily cause different levels of casualties, resource waste and property loss. To evaluate the risk status of coalbed methane development projects, this paper constructs a coalbed methane development risk assessment index system that consists of six first grade indexes and 45 second grade indexes. The weight of each index is calculated based on the structure entropy weight method. Then, a theoretical model for risk assessments of coalbed methane development is established based on the matter-element extension method. Finally, the model is applied to analyze a coalbed methane development project in the southern Qinshui Basin of China. The results show that the overall risk level of the coalbed methane development project is Grade II, indicating that the overall risk of the project is small, but the local risk of the project needs to be rectified in time. The assessment results are consistent with the actual operation of the project, indicating that the established risk assessment model has good applicability and effectiveness.

Glendon (2008), Guldenmund (2007) and Zohar (2003) identified methodological issues and difficulties in the measurement of safety culture and/or safety climate, especially in the content and design of data collection and analysis.…”
