“…When studying the intermediate variables of PC influencing SB, the focus has often been on job engagement, communication competence, and cynicism [6][7][8], neglecting ISM, which reflects an individual's psychological willingness to be safe. Intrinsic safety motivation (ISM), in turn, is a key factor reflecting workers' SBs [17,25,47]. Our findings demonstrate that leader-follower PC congruence indirectly influences SB by altering ISM, which is consistent with the idea that safety motivation supports the role of leadership management factors [20,47].…”

The difference is that our study considers both leaders and followers and considers the combined effect when they are congruent or incongruent.…”

“…First, the perspective of leader-follower fit is used as an entry point to construct a binary fit model that extends the scholarly knowledge of the relationship between PC and SB. Previous empirical studies have found that leadership contextual factors [5,47] and follower characteristics [6,8] predict follower SBs. These studies reveal the separate influential roles of leaders and followers, but ignore the mechanisms by which leaders and followers jointly influence (leader-follower congruence) SBs, to the detriment of identifying potential factors that enhance SBs.…”

This study aims to explore the relationship between leader and follower psychological capital (PC) congruence, intrinsic safety motivation (ISM), and safety behavior (SB). The construction industry is one of the most dangerous industries, and most safety accidents are determined by human behavior. Exploring the factors influencing construction workers’ SB is important for improving construction safety. This study collected 242 paired questionnaires from frontline construction workers and crew leaders in China. The SPSS 22.0 software and PROCESS program were used for analysis, the empirical study was conducted using polynomial regression and response surface analysis, and the block variable method was used to test for mediating effects. The findings show that (a) the level of follower SB is determined by the degree of leader–follower PC congruence; (b) when leader–follower PC was congruent, the impact of both high PCs on follower SB was enhanced compared to each low PC; (c) when leader–follower PC was incongruent, the impact of follower PC (FPC) above leader PC (LPC) was better on follower SB compared to FPC below LPC; (d) the relationship between leader–follower PC congruence and follower SB was mediated by ISM. The promotion of SB should focus on the fit between leaders and followers in addition to the PC of the followers themselves. This study contributes to workgroup safety in the construction industry by improving the fit between workgroup leaders and members, promoting ISM, and thus improving their safety performance.

(1) Background: Our study aims to explore the impact of abusive management and self-efficacy on corporate performance in the context of artificial intelligence-based human–machine interaction technology in enterprise performance evaluation. (2) Methods: Surveys were distributed to 578 participants in selected international companies in Turkey, Taiwan, Japan, and China. To reduce uncertainty and errors, the surveys were rigorously evaluated and did not show a normal distribution, as it was determined that 85 participants did not consciously fill out the questionnaires, and the questionnaires from the remaining 493 participants were used. By using the evaluation model of employee satisfaction based on a back propagation (BP) neural network, we explored the manifestation and impact of abusive management and self-efficacy. Using the listed real estate businesses as an example, we proposed a deep learning BP neural network-based employee job satisfaction evaluation model and a human–machine technology-based employee performance evaluation system under situational perception, according to the design requirements of human–machine interaction. (3) Results: The results show that the human–machine interface can log in according to the correct verbal instructions of the employees. In terms of age and education level variables, employees’ perceptions of leaders’ abusive management and self-efficacy are significantly different from their job performances, respectively (p < 0.01). (4) Conclusions: artificial intelligence (AI)-based human–machine interaction technology, malicious management, and self-efficacy directly affect enterprise performance and employee satisfaction.

“…SC includes compliance with safety rules or safe working ways (Neal and Griffin, 2006). Safety participation involves voluntary safety-related behaviors, such as helping colleagues and volunteering to participate in safety-related activities (Zhang et al, 2021b). In the safety literature, these acts are typically regarded as a single class of behavior, which arguably implies that their predicting factors are the same (Curcuruto et al, 2015).…”

PurposeLeaders' behavior has a critical impact on workers' safety behavior. However, previous studies have shown contradictive views on the effect of different leadership styles on safety behavior. One reason may be that the effectiveness of leaders' behavior varies according to diverse contexts. This study examines the effect of transformational and transactional leadership (TsL) on the safety behavior of on-site workers under different levels of social capital in construction projects.Design/methodology/approachSafety behavior is divided into three types: safety compliance (SC), organizational-oriented safety participation and individual-oriented safety participation (ISP). Questionnaire survey data were collected from 302 construction workers in the Chinese construction industry.FindingsThe results indicate that the positive effect of transformational leadership (TfL) of frontline supervisors on the two types of construction workers' safety participation is enhanced when social capital is high, although TfL has no significant effect on SC behavior. In contrast, TsL can promote construction workers' SC behavior and organizational-oriented safety participation and social capital positively moderating these relationships. TsL has no significant effect on ISP, but its interaction with safety behavior is positively related to ISP.Research limitations/implicationsThis study explains the inconsistent findings of previous research related to the role of leadership in safety behavior by introducing the social capitaltheory and distinguishing safety participation into two typesThis study is confined to one specific country, future research may benefit from investigating whether the conclusions of this study will be different in other nations with diverse cultures.Practical implicationsThe findings of the study provide frontline supervisors with new insights into improving workers' safety and the efficiency of leadership in safety management.Originality/valueThis study explains the inconsistent findings of previous research related to the role of leadership in safety behavior by introducing the social capital theory and distinguishing safety participation into two types.
