The safety issues of construction enterprises have been widely concerned by society.Safety accidents will not only endanger construction workers’ health and life safety,but also lead to a significantly increase in safety production costs of construction enterprises and impede China’s economic development.People who make a living in construction enterprises are always migrant workers with low culture quality and weak safety awareness.They lack systemic vocational training and do not possess necessary knowledge and skills for safe production.These disadvantages make migrant workers more vulnerable to occupational safety accidents.In order to further protect the rights and interests of migrant workers and reduce the safety production costs of construction enterprises,we should consider the causes of safety accidents.Human factors are fundamental cause of safety accidents in the construction industry.The majority of safety accidents are caused by workers’ exhibiting unsafe behaviors during production operations,while workers’ safety behaviors can avoid risk hazards and ensure the safety of companies’ production processes.There are many studies about employees’ safety behaviors at home and abroad and safety education training is one of the factors.Safety education training is an important part of corporate safety management which can not only spread safety knowledge,establish safety concepts,create safe atmosphere,but can also improve employee safety and increase employees’ safety production knowledge.These advantages can help reduce the incidence of corporate safety accidents.Safety awareness refers to personal subjective perceptions about the safety of workplace.Migrant workers’ safety awareness directly determines their attitude and behaviors toward safety work,which means their safety attitude and behaviors can reflect safety awareness.The safety attitude of migrant workers is an attitude towardssafety and life which refers to the recognition among migrant workers for safe production,the awareness of safety production norms and the tendency of safe production behaviors.After reviewing and sorting out relevant documents,scholars have found that the researches about the impact of corporate safety education training on the migrant workers’ safety behaviors are not extensive.In addition to,studies on the mediating role of safety awareness and the regulatory role of the safety attitude are rare.In response to above problems,this study combined previous research results and built a model of the relationship between corporate safety education training and the impact of migrant workers’ safety behaviors.The model was based on organizational support theory,social cognitive theory and Tolman theory.What’s more,this research introduced security awareness as intermediate variables and joined workers’ safety attitude as adjustment variables.This study selected migrant workers in construction enterprises as survey objects and collected data in the form of paper questionnaires.A total of 317 valid questionnaires were retrieved.And SPSS 19.0 was used to analyze the data and test the hypotheses.The conclusions are as follows:(1)Corporate safety education training has a positive impact on the safety behaviors of migrant workers.When enterprises have high quality safety education trainings for migrant workers,they are more likely to demonstrate safe behaviors during safe production operations.(2)Safety awareness plays a partial intermediary role between occupational safety education training and migrant workers’ safety behaviors.After having safety education trainings,migrant workers’ safety awareness has been rapidly improved.In order to prevent the occurrence of safety accidents and protect their own safety,migrant workers will show safe behaviors during production operations.(3)Workers’ safety attitude plays a positive role in regulating occupational safety education and migrant workers’ safety awareness.Which means the higher the level of workers’ safety,the stronger the impact of education training and safety awareness.Through an empirical analysis,this research deeply discussed the impact ofconstruction enterprises’ safety education training on the migrant workers’ safety behaviors,verified the mediating effect of safety awareness,the adjustment effect of safety attitude and enriched the relevant theoretical research.Theoretical researches are always supposed to serve social practices.The conclusions of this study made targeted comments and suggestions on construction enterprises.It is hoped that this research would help construction enterprises increase the degree of emphasis on safety education training,improve safety behaviors of migrant workers and reduce safety accidents.
