Abstract
In many conceptual discussions of criteria for defining the quality of working life safe and healthy working conditions figure prominently. A well known paper by Richard Walton, for example, lists eight major conceptual categories (the second of which is safe and healthy working conditions) which in his view, “… provide a framework for analysis of the salient features that together make up the quality of working life”. It is Walton's contention that this schema of eight conceptual categories invites several types of analysis, including that of how each quality of working life attribute tends to be related to the others in practice, i.e. are these attributes positively or negatively correlated and to what extent?
