Sažetak
The development of safety culture at work results in fewer accidents and injuries at work and reduces the costs and losses of business operation. The study in the development and impact of safety culture at work on safety management was conducted on the basis of the results obtained in a preliminary study of safety culture as a factor in safety management. The paper demonstrates the participants' attitudes and evaluation of the safety culture in their companies. The study utilised the questionnaire method and the participants were students at the Public College for Safety in Zagreb. The questionnaire comprised ten groups of questions, ranging from general information on the participants and their company to their attitudes to safety culture in the company. The aim was to establish the achieved level of safety culture in a company and its impact on safety management. The results indicate that in the last two years there has been no significant improvement in the promotion of safety culture in the companies, with exception of the companies in the assimilation stage. The conclusion to be drawn is that in the future it is necessary to improve safety culture in companies in a planned and organised fashion and at all levels of safety management, both on the national level and through implementation of specific activities within companies.
