This study used the Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) analysis technique with the AMOS 24.0 analysis tool. The findings show that work safety climate has a positive effect on work safety behavior, work safety knowledge has a positive effect on work safety behavior, work safety climate has a positive effect on work safety motivation, work safety knowledge has a positive effect on work safety motivation, work safety motivation has a positive effect on work safety behavior, work safety climate has a positive and significant effect on work safety behavior through work safety motivation, work safety knowledge has a positive and significant effect on work safety behavior through work safety motivation.
