| dc.description.abstract | The development of a positive culture is a key element within an organization to achieve performance against a strategic objective. In terms of safety, universities play a very important role in training new professionals who must be increasingly aware and prepared for the challenges of the labour market and daily activities. Therefore, this study aims to assess the safety culture of newcomer students to higher education through the application of a 22-item questionnaire. Participants included 109 undergraduate and master’s students from 31 different courses at a university in Northern Portugal. It was observed that the level of knowledge varied according to the type of course adopted and the gender of the student. A global performance level of below 80% shows that safety knowledge can improve further. Additionally, different preferences concerning the content, moment, and format of safety training were presented. The low level of interest in training related to chemical leakage, suspicious package, and bombing show participants may attribute a low probability level to these events. In conclusion, this work shows that it can be useful for universities to consider different training approaches according to different course types. | pt_PT |
