Relationship between Perceived Occupational Stigma and Safety Behavior of Construction Workers: Moderated Mediation Model
This study, informed by social identity theory, investigates the impact of perceived occupational stigma on the safety behavior of construction workers and seeks to disrupt this adverse relationship. A survey with 243 construction workers reveals that such stigma can escalate occupational identity threat, leading to decreased safety behaviors. However, high self-compassion among workers can weaken this negative link. The research pioneers exploring the connection between occupational stigma and safety practices in the construction sector, underscoring the importance of self-compassion as a protective factor. It suggests practical management strategies, such as addressing stigma, bolstering identity, and fostering a self-compassionate culture to enhance workers’ safety and well-being.
