A comparison between safety culture perceptions of nursing personnel according to the number of working hours per week and job positions was conducted. The purposive samples were 116 nurses with at least one-year work experience in the department of obstetrics and gynecology, Ratchaburi hospital. The instruments used in this study were questionnaires which consisted of demographic data and perception of safety culture. Data were analyzed using frequency, percentage, mean, standard deviation and then safety culture perception of nursing personnel according to the number of working hours per week and nursing positions were compared using independent t- test.</p> <p>The results indicated that the level of perception of safety culture of nursing personnel was at moderate level (μ = 3.18, σ =.23). The comparison between safety culture perceptions of nursing personnel according to the number of working hours per week indicated that the number of working hours per week was ≤ 48 hours with no difference of mean for the number of working hours per week > 48 hours (t<sub>114</sub> = .468, p = .641). The comparison of perception of safety culture among nursing personnel with different job positions indicated that there was no difference in safety culture perception (t<sub>114</sub> = .256, p = .798). Therefore, in order to develop perception of safety culture for nursing personnel, there should be a policy setting, knowledge management and a training course about a safety culture of nursing personnel.</p>}, number={2}, journal={Journal of Nurses Association of Thailand Northern Office}, author={แจ่มนาม อุบล and ศรีนนท์ รัศมี}, year={2018}, month={Dec.}, pages={25–36} }
