Keselamatan kerja merupakan aspek krusial dalam operasional perusahaan, khususnya pada sektor kelistrikan yang memiliki tingkat risiko tinggi. Penelitian ini bertujuan untuk mengetahui hubungan antara safety leadership dan safety perception terhadap safety behavior pada pekerja di site PT X tahun 2025. Pendekatan yang digunakan adalah semikuantitatif dengan metode survei menggunakan kuesioner yang diisi oleh 87 responden. Data dianalisis menggunakan uji korelasi Spearman dan Pearson. Hasil penelitian menunjukkan bahwa terdapat hubungan positif dan signifikan antara safety leadership dan safety behavior (r = 0,227; p = 0,035), serta antara safety leadership dan safety perception (r = 0,579; p = 0,000). Namun, tidak ditemukan hubungan yang signifikan antara safety perception dan safety behavior (r = 0,149; p = 0,169). Temuan ini menunjukkan bahwa kepemimpinan keselamatan memiliki peran penting dalam membentuk perilaku keselamatan pekerja, baik secara langsung maupun melalui persepsi terhadap keselamatan. Hasil wawancara dengan key person juga menguatkan bahwa keteladanan dan keterlibatan langsung pimpinan menjadi faktor yang mendorong budaya keselamatan yang positif. Penelitian ini menyarankan agar perusahaan meningkatkan efektivitas kepemimpinan keselamatan melalui pelatihan, keterlibatan aktif pemimpin, serta evaluasi berkelanjutan terhadap program keselamatan. Penelitian lanjutan direkomendasikan untuk mengeksplorasi faktor lain yang dapat memediasi atau memoderasi hubungan antarvariabel.

Occupational safety is a crucial aspect of company operations, especially in the electricity sector which carries a high level of risk. This study aims to examine the relationship between safety leadership and safety perception on safety behavior among workers at the PT X site in 2025. A semi-quantitative approach was employed using a survey method with questionnaires completed by 87 respondents. Data were analyzed using Spearman and Pearson correlation tests. The results indicate a positive and significant relationship between safety leadership and safety behavior (r = 0.227; p = 0.035), as well as between safety leadership and safety perception (r = 0.579; p = 0.000). However, no significant relationship was found between safety perception and safety behavior (r = 0.149; p = 0.169). These findings suggest that safety leadership plays an important role in shaping workers’ safety behavior, both directly and indirectly through safety perception. Interviews with key persons also support the conclusion that leadership engagement and role modeling are key drivers of a positive safety culture. The study recommends that the company improve the effectiveness of safety leadership through targeted training, active leadership involvement, and continuous evaluation of safety programs. Future research is encouraged to explore other variables that may mediate or moderate the relationships among these constructs.
