The university labs is one of the most important education facilities that contribute towards best understanding. Staff level of awareness was measured throughout the survey and data analysis had been conducted. The survey was conducted in Tenaga Nashional university labs through distributed questionnaires. The scope of the study only focusing on the level of awareness and the satisfaction towards safety and health awareness aspect at Tenaga Nashional university labs. There are 40 set of questionnaires that were distributed to the respondents. From the questionnaire, the analysis was done using an average index, 10 item instrument that assesses employees' perceptions of work safety, the Work Safety Scale, was constructed and validated using three independent samples. The results showed that the WSS measures five factorial distinct constructs: (a) job safety, (b) coworker safety, (c) supervisor safety, (d) management safety practices, and (e) satisfaction with the safety program. Each of these scales has a high degree of internal consistency across the three samples. Supervisor safety and management safety practices were the best predictors of job satisfaction. In addition, supporting previous research, supervisor safety and management safety practices were significantly correlated with reported accident rates. Coworker safety and supervisor safety were strongly linked to employee's compliance with safety behaviors. WSS subscales were logically related to job stress, psychological complaints, physical complaints, and sleep complaints. Implications of the results are discussed. 2024-10-07T03:18:33Z 2024-10-07T03:18:33Z 2015 Resource Types::text::Final Year Project https://irepository.uniten.edu.my/handle/123456789/33706 en application/pdf
