Burke provides an informative discussion on how leadership and the broader societal environment jointly affect workplace safety. Initially, he reviews the literature tied to the two perspectives that have guided most safety leadership research, leader-member exchange (LMX) and transformational leadership. The discussion emphasizes the role of leaders in exhibiting key, concrete behaviors to promote workplace safety. Then, he discusses the role of national culture in shaping workplace safety practices. This discussion highlights where national cultural values of uncertainty avoidance and high power distance have been associated with problematic organizational safety practices. He concludes the chapter with an illuminating discussion on how demonstrating positive leadership and establishing strong organizational safety climates can address questionable safety practices associated with national culture, and lead to safe and sustainable development worldwide.
