Transformational Leadership, Workaholism, and Safety Compliance among Health Care Workers

Abstract

This study examined the relationship of transformational leadership and workaholism with safety compliance. Using a cross-sectional design, 356 health care workers who completed
measures of  transformational leadership, workaholism, and safety compliance were selected
through convenience sampling technique. Hierarchical multiple regression was used to
analyse the data. After controlling for gender, marital status, employment condition, education, and age, the results supported the first hypothesis that transformational
leadership was a significant positive predictor of safety compliance. It also supported the second hypothesis that workaholism was also a significant positive predictor of safety compliance. Implications of the findings were discussed and recommendations for future research were offered.
