A total of 300 questionnaires were distributed among employees, the results of safety climate scores obtained by 267 employees were analyzed using SPSS 20. In this study were evaluated the influence of job position, shift work, type of work contracts, job type (clerical and non-clerical) and demographic variables on perception of safety climate. Findings: Calculation of the mean safety climate scores showed that the total mean of safety climate was 2/88. The highest and the lowest score were related to workers’ trust in the efficacy of safety systems (3.35) and management safety justice (2.69), respectively. The results showed that there was a significant relationship between age and experience with safety climate. Similarly, there is a significant relationship between the job position and job type with safety climate. But, there was not observed significant relationship between variables such as shift work, education level and type work contract with the safety climate.
