The current study seeks to examine the relationship between the variables safety climate and work pressure with safety behavior in workers of metal-processing plants. The sample consisted of 71 male workers from two metal-processing plants of Lima. The study was carried out under a mixed methodological approach. In the quantitative phase, the instruments used for measuring the three variables were a scale composed of items from safety climate questionnaires of Zohar (1980) and Zohar y Luria (2005), the scale of Dolcos y Daley (2009) of work pressure and the scale of Neal, Griffin y Hart (2000) with the two components of safety behavior: safety compliance and safety participation. For the qualitative phase, a guide semi-structured interview was designed in order to study the theoretical constructs of safety climate and safety behavior. The results show a positive relationship between safety climate and safety behavior, as well as, an association between the first variable and safety participation component of the latter. Similarly, the research establishes a relationship between safety climate and safety behavior in workers belonging to high risk areas, with temporary agency type of contract and with higher education level. However, the study does not find an empirical support for the relationship between work pressure and safety behavior.
