Abstract

Resilient safety culture (RSC) is a socio-technical safety system that is made up of the employee’s capabilities as well the protocols and systems in an organization to deal with hazards. Oil and gas industry sites in Kuwait were chosen for this study. Both urban and rural sites were chosen to gauge the level of resilience in their respective safety cultures. Employees in remote sites experience high stress which may lead them to develop mental health disorders over time. High stress can also be caused due to loneliness of being aloof from the social circle and from an urban surroundings. Expatriates or employees in remote work sites experience greater stress at work due to these factors as compared to urban settings. Stress and mental illness have been identified to affect safety negatively. This, in turn, impacts on safety culture which is the focus of this paper. This study ranks constructs and indicators based on data analysis to show which constructs play important part in this case study.
