Abstract: The impact of safety climate factors on safety performance has been seldom inspected in the construction industry, despite that the significance of safety climate factors in human mistakes has been recognised. Basically, distinguishing the significant contributing factors influencing on the safety behaviour should be examined at the workplace. Therefore, this study is aiming to investigate all safety climate factors that affect the safety behaviour and from that the key influential safety climate factors are deduced accordingly. The implications of these findings will significantly reduce at-risk work behaviours and increase the safety performance. The outcome concluded the critical features of key safety climate factors which can be implemented in particular applications in order to handle work behaviours. The critical factors which were identified from the systematic analysis can influence within any organisation towards the safety behaviour and can empower the assurance of influence disparity of all safety climate factors' dimensions.

Keywords: safety climate factors; work safety behaviour; construction industry; key influential factors; systematic analysis.
