AURIOLES TAPIA, Irving  y  TORRES-LOPEZ, Teresa. Cultural dimensions on occupational safety and health in pre-pharmaceutical manufacturing workers. Psicogente [online]. 2016, vol.19, n.36, pp.206-216. ISSN 0124-0137.  https://doi.org/10.17081/psico.19.36.1292.

Safety culture has been a decisive factor for global organizations. Cultural approach to safety and health in recent decades has been to identify and model the culture from an explanatory paradigm. Purpose of the study was to analyze cultural dimensions on occupational safety and health of workers in a pre-pharmaceutical enterprise through cultural consensus theory, with a qualitative design. 40 workers were recruited into two groups (partners and employees) and 399 codes were built in six families per group. Three cultural dimensions (health, safety and targets) were identified in both groups but with a much more obvious cultural consensus in partners than in employees (CC=0.623 and 0.53, respectively).

Palabras clave : Safety; Occupational health; Cultural dimensions.
