Unsafe work environments have clear consequences for both individuals and organizations. As such, an ever-expanding research base is providing a greater understanding of the factors that affect workplace safety across organizational levels. However, despite scientific advances, the workplace safety literature suffers from a lack of theoretical and empirical integration that makes it difficult for organizational scientists to gain a comprehensive sense of (a) what we currently know about workplace safety and (b) what we have yet to learn. This review addresses these shortcomings. First, the authors provide a formal definition of workplace safety and then create an integrated safety model (ISM) based on existing theory to summarize current theoretical expectations with regard to workplace safety. Second, the authors conduct a targeted review of the safety literature and compare extant empirical findings with the ISM. Finally, the authors use the results of this review to articulate gaps between theory and research and then make recommendations for both theoretical and empirical improvements to guide and integrate future workplace safety research.

工作场所安全

不安全的工作环境对个人和组织都有明显的后果。因此，不断扩大的研究基础使人们对组织范围内影响工作场所安全的因素有了更深入的了解。然而，尽管科学进步，但工作场所安全文献缺乏理论和经验上的整合，这使得组织科学家难以全面了解（a）我们目前对工作场所安全的了解以及（b）我们还没有掌握什么学习。这篇评论解决了这些缺点。首先，作者提供了工作场所安全的正式定义，然后根据现有理论创建了一个综合安全模型（ISM），以总结当前对工作场所安全的理论期望。第二，作者对安全性文献进行了有针对性的审查，并将现有的经验发现与ISM进行了比较。最后，作者使用本综述的结果来阐明理论与研究之间的差距，然后就理论和经验上的改进提出建议，以指导和整合未来的工作场所安全性研究。
