One of the ways to promote safety in the workplace is creating the safety culture. To this end, safety culture has been studied and promoted with the help of 4E technique in Esfarayen steel industry.
Methods: This is a descriptive-analytical and interventional study that evaluated safety culture using the HSE standard questionnaire and then promoted the safety culture with the help of 4 E technique. The results were then studied and compared using the statistical statistics by SPSS16 and Excel2010 software.
Results: The mean score of safety culture was 326 ± 10.17 before and 395 ± 15.8 after the intervention. Pair t-test showed that the interventions were effective in improving the safety culture (p = 0/001). The findings showed that 4E technique is one of the effective factors in improving the safety culture.
Conclusion: The findings showed that the educational issue of technical and participatory interventions is among the main and important pillars in promoting the safety culture. As a result, the participants’ knowledge, skills, and positive attitudes to safety and safety issues of the organization increased.
