AB - This study aimed to identify the level of safety awareness and emergency response capability of public facility employees and the relevant influencing factors. Samples were randomly collected from employees working at airport, subway, shopping center, and bus terminal located in three big cities in Korea. Analysis of completed questionnaires from 200 respondents revealed that the level of safety awareness was above moderate, while their emergency response capability was relatively low. The higher safety awareness, the higher emergency response capability. The significant factors affecting safety awareness were facilities and education, whereas those affecting emergency response capability were facilities, gender, and first aid training. In conclusion, regular safety education and first aid training for all employees can improve the emergency response capability of public facility employees. Further research is recommended to develop a customized educational program based on the assessment of the specific needs of public facility workers.
