Abstract

Introduction: Workplace safety and emergency preparedness are management priorities, especially in high-risk manufacturing industries such as the tile industry. The present study aimed to evaluate the effect of training on safety culture and cardiopulmonary resuscitation skill self-efficacy in tile industry managers in Yazd; 2023.

Materials and Methods: This study was a quasi-experimental, pre-post design implemented on 30 middle and junior managers at the Noavaran Meybod Tile Company. The training course was designed based on the ADDIE Model (Analysis, Design, Development, Implementation, and Evaluation) and consisted of three 4-hour sessions. For measurement, the Safety Culture Questionnaire developed by Nouri Jabbari et al. and the Basic CPR Self-Efficacy Questionnaire developed by Padilla et al. were utilized. Data were analyzed using descriptive and inferential statistical tests (t-test, ANOVA, linear regression) in SPSS 27 software.

Results: The mean score for the self-efficacy variable increased from pre-training (2.98 ± 0.17) to post-training (4.11 ± 0.8), and similarly, the mean score for the safety culture variable increased from pre-training (139.0 ± 2.69) to post-training (171.7 ± 2.96). However, the observed differences were not statistically significant (P > 0.05) for either variable. Furthermore, no linear relationship was observed between demographic variables and the safety culture variables (R² = 0.073, P > 0.05 for all dimensions) or self-efficacy (R² = 0.170, P > 0.05 for all dimensions).

Conclusion: The results indicate that the educational intervention, by itself, was insufficient to create structural and generalizable changes in the safety culture and self-efficacy of this group. To achieve decisive outcomes, it is recommended that continuous, more comprehensive training, along with the adoption of novel educational and supervisory methods, be prioritized to solidify behavioral changes in the workplace.
