你所在的企業中，是否有倡導職安文化呢？
你可能得花上很多的時間才能找到上面這個問題的答案，因為要量化「文化」是件不容易的事情，尤其是「職安文化」。畢竟，有誰能夠測量態度、信仰和價值觀呢？
文化的「定義」之一是「集結了多種理念和態度的氛圍」，因此，如果這些理念和態度裡都無視安全的重要性，基本上就無法防止事故的發生。這就是為什麼我們必須宣導職安的意義與價值──文化是充滿力量的，這可以讓我們避免鑄成大錯。
職安文化並不是自然產生的，一個安全的工作環境的產生仰賴管理階層的鼓勵和培育、開放的溝通管道和環安系統的架設。
在這篇文章中，我們將列舉幾項關鍵因素，說明如何透過改變企業文化來提升職場安全。如果你都能回答「YES」，那很棒！如果不能，你可有些工作要做了。

In this post, we’re going to list some of the key reasons cultural changes are able to keep workforces safe. If you a can say “yes, we see that within our organization” – great. If not, you’ve got some work to do.<Read more>
