Abstract: This study examined the outcomes of work-related safety behaviour on organizational culture and accident occurrence within Ghanaian industries. Using a quantitative cross-sectional survey design, data were collected from 380 employees across manufacturing, construction, and energy sectors. The research investigated how safety compliance, participation, and proactive safety behaviours influence organizational safety culture and the frequency of workplace accidents. Statistical analyses, including correlation and regression tests, revealed that safety behaviours significantly shape organizational culture and contribute to accident reduction. Safety compliance was found to reinforce structured safety practices, while proactive safety behaviour emerged as the most critical factor in minimizing workplace accidents. The findings highlighted that a strong culture of safety develops when management commitment aligns with employees’ behavioural engagement in safety practices. The study emphasized that sustainable occupational safety depends on integrating behavioural consistency with institutional support, thereby promoting a safer, more productive, and resilient industrial environment in Ghana.
