ABSTRACT
The main objectives of this study are to: (i). develop two valid and reliable psychological instruments for assessing safety management practices (SMP) and situation awareness (SA) in accident-prone Nigerian work organizations; (ii). investigate the relationships between situation awareness and safety management practices in the selected Nigerian work organizations; ;(iii) determine how situation awareness and safety management practices would predict effective performance (commitment, involvement and general effectiveness) of workers in the selected Nigerian organisations (iv) . compare the differences in situation awareness between the selected Nigerian public and private sector organisations;(v ). determine the differences in safety management practices between the selected Nigerian private and public sector organisation;(vi) . examine gender differences in situation awareness among the employees of the selected Nigerian work organisations; and (vii). assess organisational cadre differences in situation awareness.
To accomplish the set objectives, two inter-related studies were carried out, namely: (1). Development and standardisation of two psychological instruments (SAQ & SMPQ) and re-validation of Organizational effectiveness test (OEQ) with Nigerian sample. Here, local norms were established for the instruments. (2). Assessment study in which a test battery of seven instruments (BIO-DATA, SAQ, SMPQ, OCQ, JIQ, OEQ & OSQ) were administered concurrently to 600 participants sampled through Multi-Stage and Stratified randomisation techniques; selected from twenty –six( public and private) organisations considered to be accident-prone on equal number, gender and cadre basis. A total number of six hypotheses were postulated for the study out of which three were confirmed, while three were rejected.
