An increase in positive organisational culture and safety ownership within an organisation is typically associated with an increase in good corporate citizenship behaviours. These behaviours have been linked with numerous desirable outcomes such as an increase in productivity and engagement levels, as well as a decrease in absenteeism and at-risk behaviours.
