摘要:This study examined the effects of personality traits (extraversion, agreeableness, conscientiousness, emotional stability and openness to experience) and safety climate on risk perception among construction workers. The sample consisted of 107 employees from Hong Kong construction companies. Structural equation modeling was used to test the effects of personality traits and safety climate on risk perception. The results showed that risk perception of construction workers was negatively influenced by extraversion and openness to experience, but was positively affected by agreeableness and conscientiousness. In addition, safety climate of work organization had positive influence on risk perception of construction workers. These findings offered both theoretical and practical implications for broadening our understanding of risk perception and improving risk perception of construction workers.
