Area of Science:

  • Occupational Health and Safety
  • Educational Program Evaluation
  • Psychometrics

Context:

  • Effective occupational health and safety (OHS) training is crucial for worker well-being and regulatory compliance.
  • Evaluating the quality of OHS training programs is essential for continuous improvement.
  • Existing methods for OHS training evaluation may lack comprehensive psychometric validation.

Purpose:

  • To develop and validate a reliable and valid questionnaire for assessing the quality of occupational health and safety training programs.
  • To provide a standardized tool for OHS training program evaluation across industries.

Summary:

  • A 21-item questionnaire with five subscales was developed and psychometrically evaluated.
  • Reliability (Cronbach's alpha: 0.6194–0.6611) and validity (Pearson correlations: 0.568–0.834) were confirmed through principal component analysis and factor loadings (0.731–0.855).

  • Application in an oil refining company (n=700) demonstrated good discriminability, with an average training program score of 57.2, highlighting significant training gaps.

    • Impact:

    • The validated questionnaire is suitable for evaluating OHS training program quality.
    • Findings highlight specific areas for improvement in OHS training within the studied oil refining company.
    • This tool can guide future OHS training development and enhance workplace safety standards.
