ABSTRACT The petrochemistry has been an important role at
economic development in Taiwan. The process in petrochemistry is
complicated and existed a very high potential risk in use
production, manufacturing and storage. In past registers of
occupational calamity, the accident happened mainly due to
peoples'' mistakes. Thus, the knowledge, attitude, and behavior
of workers are very important to petrochemistry. The
study is focus on the factories that are supervised by the
Kaohsiung Environment protection agency as the population. In 29
random sampling factories, we got 275 effective questionnaires ,
240 of them are workers and 35 are managers. We investigated
their knowledge, attitude, behavior and the condition of safety
and health in work environments. The results showed that the
mean of knowledge score is 18.03±6.37(total score is 32) in
managers and 13.06±3.24(total score is 22) in workers,are both
are just to pass. The mean of attitude score is 17.34±5.41(
total score is 32) in managers, 18.49±6.43 (total score is 32)
in workers, both of them are positive score. Contract to
the managers without license, the work unit that the managers
have license have showed better knowledge and attitude score.
But after Mann-Whitney U test, all the score have not
significant difference. To distinguish the differences about
knowledge and attitude scores, from four group factories , in
which their workers were below 30, 30-99, 100-299, over 300, the
factories that workers were below 30 had showed the lowest
knowledge. But according to Kruskal-Wallis H test, the menagers
did not have the significant difference in knowledge and
attitude on the other hand, after Scheffe''s test there were
significant differences between the factories below 30 workers
and the others . To compare with worker,s attitude , there were
significant difference between the factories below 30 workers
and above 300 workers. It may be associated with that the
professional mangers are existed or not.
