“…Many of the key principles for adopting safe work environments include commitment from the organization to promote a safe work environment, policies that enforce safe behaviors, incentives, and appropriate goal-setting, to name a few (e.g., Alavosius, Adams, Ahern, & Follick, 2000;Geller, 1990;Law et al, 2011). Because of the nature of the factors that contribute to a positive work climate (e.g., leadership, organizational policies, reward systems; Credo, Armenakis, Feild, & Young, 2010), we propose that fostering safe work environments falls to HR to ensure management commitment, behavioral change and management programs, and policies that reward or enforce appropriate behaviors. HRM practitioners can advocate for the wellbeing of employees through institutionalized practices.…”
