Nevertheless, it has also been reported to project many challenges, with psychosocial problems such as stress and burnout on top of the list. Interestingly during the lockdown, it was suspected to yield two-sided impacts among many teleworkers, such two-sided impact including bringing about increase in productivity for some and decrease in others. This situation has been presumed by some to be connected to lack of social interaction as well as the socio-demographics difference of the workers. Therefore, the research question of our study is; what are the effects of the demographic characteristics of teleworkers on their positive and negative working-from-home experience? This study adopted a random sampling approach for the data collection from teleworkers across Europe, using an online cross-sectional survey with distribution done via platforms such as LinkedIn and also among individual workers. At the end, 399 responses were collected and data was analysed using Chi-square tests to determine the difference in the impacts of teleworking on employees based on their socio-demographics. All analysis were done using SPSS. The results of our study underline the importance of businesses evaluating and improving their workers’ teleworking work experiences, irrespective of their socio-demographics. This study’s findings, which are important to both employers and employees as they navigate the changing workplace, emphasize the need to understand the complex consequences of remote work on workers’ job satisfaction and well-being.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":21375,"journal":{"name":"Safety Science","volume":"183 ","pages":"Article 106732"},"PeriodicalIF":4.7,"publicationDate":"2024-11-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142748739","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

This study distinguishes between two types of safety culture pertinent to AMTs: maintenance occupational safety culture, which emphasizes personal safety and adherence to workplace safety practices, and maintenance-based aviation safety culture, which covers the broader safety culture within the aviation maintenance sector, particularly how maintenance activities contribute to overall aviation safety and the prevention of accidents. The research aimed to develop and validate measurement tools for both constructs and explore their interrelationships. A survey was created, reviewed by subject matter experts, and distributed to AMTs employed by Part 121 carriers in the United States using multiple distribution channels. Multivariate statistical analyses were conducted to assess the safety culture constructs and examine their interactions. The results of this study contribute significantly to the aviation maintenance field by developing safety culture constructs tailored to aviation maintenance, providing validated tools for assessing safety culture, and offering insights into how these safety cultures differ across AMTs’ demographics.

As such, there is only limited knowledge about how universal and generalizable experimental observations on crowd behavior are. This research explores how gender and culture impact pedestrian dynamics in single-file movement, a topic previously studied in isolation through disjointed and varied experiments. Here, for the first time, and as an attempt to investigate external validity and generalizability across cultures, we conduct the same experiment in five different countries. Each experiment examines the effects of varying gender compositions on single-file pedestrian movement. We observed consistent effects of different gender compositions on pedestrian movement across countries, with no significant deviations in the fundamental diagrams, especially in the bounded regime. Although there was some variability in acceleration behavior across countries. Interaction levels, clustering behavior, and pedestrian spacing patterns remained consistent between different gender compositions and countries. These results suggest that, while the behavior of collective motion varies by culture and gender composition, most aspects of pedestrian movement exhibit universal traits. Understanding these variations and commonalities can allow for better infrastructure design and planning tailored to the population of interest.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":21375,"journal":{"name":"Safety Science","volume":"183 ","pages":"Article 106710"},"PeriodicalIF":4.7,"publicationDate":"2024-11-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142698794","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":1,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
