  <dc:description>Introduction: Construction industry has a unique nature and considered as a
dangerous industry. Due to its characteristics, the promotion of safety management
and maintaining safe work environment is difficult and inadequate. Cost of injury and
accident incurred is higher in developing country like Ethiopia. Promoting and
maintaining safety culture is a new way of decreasing workplace accidents and
creating conducive environment in construction sector.
Objective: to assess the level of safety culture and factors associated with it in X
Construction Company, Ethiopia, 2014.
Methods: An Institutional based cross-sectional study was conducted. The sample
size of the study was 422 in X construction workers with a response rate of 95%.
The data was collected by using interview administered NOSACQ-50 questionnaire
and review of records of accident report, OHS company documents and walk
through survey using workplace observation checklist to support the Questionnaire.
The score of mean above 2.5 was considered as good safety culture and below the
mean as poor safety culture; as well the level of safety culture of the company was
indicated using mean score. Both Bivariate and multivariate logistic regression
analysis were used to determine the degree of association by using odds ratio with
95% CI. ANOVA was also used to calculate the mean differences of X construction
company sites</dc:description>
