Infrastructure development is inseparable from the potential dangers or risks that can cause work accidents caused by unsafe behavior and unsafe conditions. Unsafe behavior is formed from 3 (three) phases, namely management, work environment, and individuals. One of the efforts made by PT.X in improving safety at work is to routinely conduct safety talks and toolbox meetings with workers. However, these routine activities do not show a significant relationship from the behavior of the workers themselves, where there are still some workers who do not comply with safety. Therefore, it is necessary to conduct research on the factors that can influence safety behavior in construction workers of the Banda Aceh City High-Rise Building. This study uses a quantitative approach method to determine the effect of personal factors, management, and social support on safety behavior. This research method was carried out by distributing questionnaires to 122 construction workers using the Convenience Sampling technique. The data analysis method uses Structural Equation Modeling - Partial Least Squared (SEM-PLS) and is processed using SmartPLS 3.0 software. Based on the results of the study, it shows that there is a positive and significant influence between personal factors and safety behavior (sig. = 0.002 <0.05; t-statistic = 3.130 > 1.96), management practices with safety behavior (sig. = 0.046 <0.05; t-statistic = 1.998 > 1.96), and social support for safety behavior (sig. = 0.006 <0.05; t-statistic = 2.761 > 1.96). However, there is no mediation effect between safety management practices and social support for safety behavior. Recommendations for improving safety behavior for management are to increase motivation through awards or gifts, increase knowledge through routine training, and improve safety management practices so that they can improve safety culture and reduce work accidents.
