“…This role contributes to the reduction of stress through the improvement of the safety climate (p.1). [24] By taking all of these research findings into consideration it is important to develop a better safety environment, provide support for the staff and increase their well-being to decrease their stress regarding COVID-19 pandemics. It is also important for managers and leaders to consider this issue in their management processes.…”

“…When the existing literature on the issues covered is reviewed, it is possible to see that some studies focused on coronavirus anxiety in the healthcare sector [21][22][23][24], while some others focus on anxiety and stress of the public during the coronavirus spread [25], and some examine the relationship between health anxiety and the perceptions and attitudes of the individuals [26], anxiety during the COVID-19 pandemic among college students [27] or coronaphobia and psychological distress experienced during COVID-19 [28]. On the other hand, Rigoli [29] studied the welfare policies during the coronavirus emergency and the role of political orientation and anxiety.…”

The coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic, which emerged in China in December 2019, has severely affected many industries across the world and created substantial psychological, social and economic impact on individuals. With the coronavirus outbreak labelled as a pandemic by the World Health Organization, the first measures have been taken for the aviation industry. The crisis environment created by the pandemic had a negative impact on aviation personnel. The main purpose of this research is to investigate the mediator role of employee well-being in the effect of COVID-19 anxiety on occupational commitment. The data were collected through a survey of cabin and cockpit staff (n = 3862). After the analyses, it was found that the effect of COVID-19 anxiety on well-being, and occupational affective and normative commitment was significant. Moreover, it is among the findings that well-being has a partial mediator role in the effect of COVID-19 anxiety on occupational affective and normative commitment. KEYWORDSaviation sector; COVID-19 anxiety; flight personnel; occupational commitment; well-being the aviation sector has faced a crisis even bigger than the one experienced in the 9/11 attacks, and rapidly spreading pandemic brought the aviation industry to a halt. According to the number of flights statistics in Turkey, the most active airline Turkish Airlines has reduced their number of flights to approximately half. Despite that, in 2019, Turkish Airlines, the fourth airline company with the

“…On the other hand, the results of a previous study indicate safety climate can affect workers' job stress. The study by Akbolat et al revealed the effect of workplace safety climate on job stress through the moderating effect of psychological well-being [35]. Idris et al also concluded that safety climate had a significant effect on job demands and psychological health in workers [36].…”

View full text Add to dashboard Cite

Background Job stress is a probable mediator of the relationship between safety climate and accident occurrence. To demonstrate this, this study investigates the relationship between safety climate, job stress, and accident risk using a large number of surveys. The study will use structural equation modeling (SEM) to analyze the data collected from the surveys to examine the effect of safety climate on accident risk through job stress. Methods The study is a cross-sectional study that was conducted on 1,530 male workers of a petrochemical company. The subjects were asked to complete several questionnaires during rest periods, which included demographic information, the Nordic safety climate questionnaire (NOSACQ-50), and the generic job stress questionnaire (GJSQ). Additionally, data on the frequency and intensity of accidents among participants were gathered from the health unit of the company. Path analysis was conducted by structural equation modeling (SEM) in Analysis of Moment Structures (AMOS) software. Results The results revealed that the latent variable of safety climate with an effect coefficient of – 0.112 did not have a direct effect on accident risk (P = 0.343). However, safety climate with an effect coefficient of − 0.633 had an indirect effect on accident risk through job stress (P < 0.001). The total score of job stress had a significant direct effect (0.649) on accident risk (P < 0.001). Among the dimensions of safety climate, the variables of management’s safety priority, commitment, and competence (− 0.108) and workers’ safety commitment (− 0.107) had the highest indirect effect coefficients on accident risk. Among the dimensions of job stress, the highest indirect effects belonged to the variables of conflict at work (0.636), physical environment (0.631), and workload and responsibility (0.631), respectively. Conclusion The results of the study revealed that job stress mediates the relationship between safety climate and accident risk. This finding suggests that organizations can potentially decrease accidents in industries by addressing and managing job stress in the workplace.

“…These factors hurt the company and lower staff performance and dedication, resulting in poor performance. Bullying in the workplace increases anger, anxiety, and overthinking, which can lead to heart attacks and strokes, low confidence and self-esteem, absenteeism, poor performance, and job retention (Akbolat, Amarat, Yildirim, Yildirim, & Taş, 2022;Vranjes, Elst, Griep, De Witte, & Baillien, 2022). A new gender study (Akella, D., et al, 2022) examines how indirect aggressive methods, which are considered normal female behaviors, greatly influence various forms of bullying.…”

The goal of this research was to investigate the effect of workplace bullying on organizational commitment. Also, the analysis the mediating role of self-esteem in this particular relationship and mod explores Power distance erasing function. The survey was carried out on employees and peers working in the public sector universities of Pakistan. Via convenience sampling, data was collected from 236 employees of the Public Sector Universities of Pakistan. Data was analyzed by using structural equation modeling technique in Smart-PLS3. PLS-SEM represents significant relationship as the entire proposed hypotheses were supported. Results show that bullying in the workplace has negated a strong and significant relationship with organizational commitment. The mediating role of Self-esteem between the workplace bullying relationship and organizational commitment was backed by effects as well. While the Power Distance's moderating function between the outcomes was supported by occupational bullying and organizational commitment. Accordingly, a mutually trusting ecosystem should be created and encouraged by organization; a significant buffer can be used for the efficient functioning of organizations to reduce the negative feelings and also help to increase the organizational commitment. This research is not only for education sector, it is also helpful for all sectors like Agriculture, industrial and mining sectors. This research talks about how to tackle bullying activities during work
