Abstract

Recently, the increasing number of Chinese expatriate projects of international universities in South-Eastern Asian countries was continuously expanding due to the economic growth and cultural exchanges. This study aimed to determine the impact of Chinese expatriate projects on safety behavior in South-Eastern Asian universities. The data were collected from Chinese people’s cases who were participating in expatriate projects at Maejo University in Thailand, Segi University in Malaysia, and University Putera Malaysia. This study uses quantitative and qualitative analysis methods. The recovery rate of the questionnaire retrieved was 68.67% from 150 questionnaires shared. The statistical data were analyzed by IBM SPSS software version 23. This current research used two variables, dependent and independent. Dependent variables include safety execution and safety handling (safety behavior). Independent variables include safety management, safety awareness, and safety attitude (safety climate). The non-standardized regression equation was: “safety behavior”=1.047+(0.683*”safety climate”). The unnormalized regression coefficient was 0.683, and the normalized regression coefficient was 0.456. Those corresponded to a significance level of less than 0.01. It reached an extremely significant level, indicating that the “safety climate” had an extremely significant positive impact on “safety behavior.” The results encouraged Chinese expatriates in South-Eastern Asian universities to adapt to the safety condition in their workspace.
