Workers' accident-proneness is considered as an inherent and coherent feature in incidence of occupational accidents. Therefore, recognizing its determinants could be effective in preventing such accidents. This study aimed to investigate the effect of work locus of control and general health on accident-proneness with the regard to the mediating role of effort-reward imbalance.

This analytical and cross-sectional research was conducted in 2018 using structural equation modeling (SEM) with partial least square approach. In total, 225 employees with a history of occupational accidents in  Esfahan Steel Company were selected. Data analysis was performed using SPSS-23 and SMARTPLS3.

The obtained results indicated that the measurement and structural models were fitted. In addition, results demonstrated that all assumptions of the research were significant with the exception of the general health effect on accident proneness. 

The results of this study showed that by controlling the work environment stressors, such as balancing effort-reward, could reduce the  accident- proneness. In addition, by checking the general health and work locus of control  to prevent the occupational accidents in the sieving process, people with internal control should be selected for stressful occupations.

Human factor can be regarded as the most important and basic factors to cause the occurrence of occupational accidents. Workers' accident-proneness is considered an inherent and coherent feature among these factors, therefore, recognizing its determinants could be effective in preventing such accidents. The present research has been done in among workers of Isfahan Steel Company with the aim of modeling the individual and social factors that affect occupational accidents. This analytical and cross-sectional research was conducted in 2018 using structural equation modeling (SEM) with partial least square approach. The sample size of the study 450 people (225 case, and 225 control) esfahansteel company were selected. Data analysis was performed in SPSS-23 and SMARTPLS3. The obtained results indicated that the measurement and structural models was fitted. In addition, results demonstrated that all assumptions of the research were significant with the exception of the theory of effect of the relationship between individual factors and accident- proneness.   The current study showed that people working in this industry became more vulnerable to the incident due to being exposed to stress, effort-reward imbalance and work family conflict and they increased the possibility of incidents and unsafe acts in the industry. Also, by checking the general health and work locus of Control for preventing occupational accidents in the screening process, people with internal control can be selected for stressful occupations.

Workers' accident-proneness is considered as an inherent and coherent characteristic in incidence of job accidents; therefore, its effective factors should be determined to prevent job accidents. This study recommends use of PLS-MGA in the field of occupational accidents. The present study was carried out to conduct Multi-group analysis of workers in the steel production industry using partial least squares approach. This cross-sectional analytical study was conducted in 2018. The sample size of the study was calculated as 450 people using the sample size sampling method in structural equation modeling. Data analysis was performed using SPSS and SMARTPLS3. The findings showed the mediating role of stress between accident-proneness and individual and social factors. Moreover, the results of PLS-MGA showed no significant difference between the two groups considering all hypotheses. In other words, all research hypotheses were confirmed in the two groups except the hypothesis over the relationship between individual factors and accident- proneness. The present study indicated that workers of steel industry turned into accident-prone individuals in case of facing intense stress, effort-reward imbalance, and work-family conflict. Therefore, the odds of accidents and unsafe factors increase among them. In this regard, individuals' general health status and work locus of control should be investigated at the time of recruitment, so that only people with high internal locus of control are employed for stressful jobs.
