This study aims to figure out the effective methods for reducing industrial accidents through establishing safety culture ultimately among new employees in the construction industry. It is reported that the new staffs, especially those who are working less than a year have accounted for a large portion of accidents such as falls and collapse at the construction site. Amid this situation, the preventive measures to lower the rates of industrial accidents should be urgently needed. In this regard, the newly hired staffs were given a form of survey to analyze the interaction with safety consciousness, safety training, safety procedures and safety actions in establishing safety culture. The results of the survey demonstrated the efficiency of the safety culture training in that the new workers showed more positive attitude towards safety awareness after they took a safety culture training than before they did. The output throughout this study verifies that safety consciousness, safety knowledge, safety training, safety procedures and safety actions are intimately connected to one another and these factors have a positive influence on the new staffs' attitude and awareness of safety culture at the job site. Thus, the implication of this study suggests the safety culture training, which is included with safety consciousness, safety knowledge, safety procedures and safety actions should be a possible measure to instill safety consciousness and raise safety awareness for the new employees. Then, it is expected that effective safety culture training ultimately lead to the spread of the new safety culture in the construction field.
