Abstract
The relationship between supervisor leadership style on safety culture and performance at two US railroads was examined. Data from the Safety Culture Survey (Sherry, 2018) and a measure of leadership style revealed significant relationships between leadership style, culture and performance. Implications for development of a positive safety culture are discussed.
