Data as evidence: research on the impacting mechanisms of dual prevention mechanism construction in Chinese coal enterprise based on SEM.

Abstract

Constructing dual prevention mechanisms is important policy for safety risk precontrol in Chinese coalmine. Existing researches mostly focus on the qualitative analysis of dual prevention mechanisms, such as the relevant concept definitions, specific industries practice, information system design, etc. However, systematic and in-depth quantitative research on the influencing factors of dual prevention mechanism construction is relatively scarce. Considering these, to effectively improve the operation effect of dual prevention mechanisms for Chinese coalmine, 6 types of internal and external factors impacting dual prevention mechanism construction are systematically analyzed according to Stakeholder Theory, and theoretical model about impacting mechanisms is established based on TPB. Secondly, we use 626 valid questionnaires as evidence source and SEM as evidence production method to test the fitting degree, direct effect and mediating effect of theoretical model. Finally, we deeply reveal the influence path and impact intensity of 6 factors on the willingness and behavior of dual prevention mechanism construction in coal enterprise. Meanwhile, policy suggestions are proposed to strengthen the dual prevention mechanism construction in coal enterprise. Results indicate that: ①Enterprise safety climate, cognition from management layer, government supervision and public monitoring can not only directly affect, but also indirectly affect the behavior of dual prevention mechanism construction through the willingness of dual prevention mechanism construction. ②Overall impact intensity of 6 factors on the behavior of dual prevention mechanism construction ranks: public monitoring > government supervision > cognition from management layer > employee safety attitude > enterprise safety climate > enterprise organization and management ability. ③External thrusts/pressures that promote the dual prevention mechanism construction in coal enterprise still cannot be ignored, while internal driving forces need to be further strengthened.
