<![CDATA[Workplace safety is a crucial element in human resource management, particularly in the oil and gas industry, which is characterized by high levels of risk and operational complexity. This study aims to analyze the influence of hazard identification on safe behavior, with risk perception serving as a mediating variable among workers at PT Pertamina Hulu Rokan. The study employs a quantitative approach with a causal research design. Data were collected via a seven-point Likert scale questionnaire from 86 respondents and analyzed using Structural Equation Modeling–Partial Least Squares (SEM-PLS) with WarpPLS 8.0. The results indicate that hazard identification has a positive and significant effect on safe behavior (β = 0.758; p < 0.001) and risk perception (β = 0.394; p < 0.001). Furthermore, risk perception has a positive and significant effect on safe behavior (β = 0.109; p < 0.001). Risk perception was also found to mediate the influence of hazard identification on safe behavior, with an indirect effect of β = 0.043 (p < 0.001). The R² value for risk perception (0.649) indicates strong explanatory power, whereas the R² value for safe behavior (0.145) suggests the presence of factors outside the model. These findings confirm that risk perception acts as a cognitive mechanism linking hazard identification to safe behavior.]]>
