    Markič, Mirko ...
    The main aim of this study is therefore to establish the impact of the leadership on occupational health and safety and on top managements' attitudes towards occupational health and safety in large ... enterprises. To research this relationship and the critical factors that affect it, and consequently the impact of these factors on occupational health and safety, we implemented the self-assessment method by using self-assessment questionnaire. The questionnaires were sent to the census of 351 top managers of large Slovenian enterprises. 62 responses were received and analysed by employing a statistical software programme (SPSS). The results showed that leadership oriented towards occupational health and safety in large enterprises has a significant impact on the state of health in the organization and on the attitudes towards occupational health and safety. We can conclude that top management%s leadership oriented towards occupational health and safety has a significant positive impact on occupational health and safety in enterprises. This study partially fills up the defined gap in the area of empirical data processing related to the safety leadership of top managers in ensuring occupational health and safety as well as to their attitude towards this issue.
