SD simulation study on influence of incentive strategy on active safety behavior of miner groups

To improve coal mine safety management level and reduce accident rate, the system dynamics（ＳＤ） method was used to construct the SD model of the influence of incentive strategies on the active safety behavior of miner groups from the aspects of survival, relationship and growth incentives. Based on the questionnaire survey method, 571 questionnaires were collected to determine the simulation parameters, and Vensim software was used to simulate the influence of incentive strategies on the active safety behavior of miner groups. The results show that different types of incentive strategies have different effects on the active safety behavior of miner groups. Survival incentive, growth incentive, relationship incentive effect decreased in turn. The level of active safety behavior of low-educated miner groups are more likely to be promoted by survival incentive and growth incentive, and the relationship incentive has more obvious influence on the improvement of active safety behavior of high-educated miner groups. Therefore, coal mine safety managers should adopt different incentive strategies for different miner groups to more effectively promote the implementation of miners’ active safety behaviors.
