description Background and Objective: The spread of accidents in various industries highlights the need to pay more attention to safety factors and try to improve employees’ job satisfaction. Therefore, the present study aimed to assess the level of safety climate and the prevalence of work-related accidents by considering the mediating role of job satisfaction in Shabnam food industry. Materials and Methods: In this applied and descriptive-non-experimental research, a total of 122 employees of Shabnam food industry were selected to complete the questionnaire. In order to assess the relationship between research variables, a researcher-made questionnaire encompassing 3 variables and 36 items was used. The data were analyzed in SPSS (version 26) and LISREL (version 8.8) software packages using structural equation modeling. Results: The analytical results of the data demonstrated that the level of safety climate and job satisfaction had an adverse effect on the prevalence of work-related accidents. Moreover, the level of safety climate had a positive and significant effect on job satisfaction. Finally, the mediating role of job satisfaction in the relationship between the assessment of the level of safety climate and the prevalence of work-related accidents was confirmed. Conclusion: As evidenced by the findings of the research, it is recommended that Shabnam food industry officials improve the safety atmosphere of the work environment and control the statistics of accidents by creating a safe work environment through the provision of safety equipment and providing relevant training. It was also concluded that paying attention to the needs of employees and getting their satisfaction can accelerate this process.
