| Summary: | This study seeks to determine the significant antecedents of attitude,
subjective norm and perceived behaviour control toward safety behaviours as well
as to explain how the theory of decomposed theory of planned behavior (DTPB) is
being in Malaysian Logistics. The major theoretical contribution of this study will
be to consider new determinants of subjective norms and perceived behavioural
controls. The study was analysed using Statistical Package for Social Science
(SPSS) 17.0 and Smm1PLS 3.0 software. The model was tested using data collected
from one hundred and three valid respondents. Both measurement and structural
models exhibit good model fit to data. The paths estimations show that among five
hypotheses tested, two are fully supported and three partially supported. The results
show that moral obligation is signi ficant and positive antecedents of personal
commitment to safety (PS) and safety intemalisation (SI), and government support
(GS) is significant and positive antecedents of SI. PS and SI are significantly and
positively related to safety performance (SP) and free from fatigue and somatic
complaints (FT), while PS is significantly and positively related to job satisfaction
(JS). Another finding is that influences of mass media and client partnerships are
insignificant. It can be concluded that DTPB is found to be a suitable underlying
theory to explain safety behaviour |
