The system realizes the safety risk assessment of enterprises, fleets and individuals in the form of test scales by constructing a structural model of the enterprise safety atmosphere, including the management, communication, and supervision of enterprises, fleets, and individuals. The safety climate was modeled using a two-level framework, at the organizational level and fleet level, and three dimensions of test items for each level were obtained by exploratory factor analysis. The three dimensions of safety management, safety supervision, and safety priority at the organizational level, and the three dimensions of positive communication, safety awareness, and self-discipline at the fleet level, respectively, passed a valid factorial test (p &lt; 0.01). Finally, the validity of the system evaluation results was verified by relying on the actual in-vehicle monitoring data and accident records of the corporate transportation fleet. The results show that the total test scores at the organizational level and the fleet level are significantly correlated with their driving risk behaviors, and both are linearly and negatively correlated with the number of accidents per thousand kilometers. This indicates a high degree of consistency between the system\u2019s test results and actual risky accidents.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.3390\/systems12050177","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2024,5,16]],"date-time":"2024-05-16T03:24:48Z","timestamp":1715829888000},"page":"177","update-policy":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.3390\/mdpi_crossmark_policy","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":4,"title":["Truck Driving Assessment for Chinese Logistics and Transportation Companies Based on a Safety Climate Test System"],"prefix":"10.3390","volume":"12","author":[{"given":"Jian","family":"Xiong","sequence":"first","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Transportation Engineering, Kunming University of Technology, Kunming 650500, China"}]},{"given":"Zhenhan","family":"Chen","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[{"name":"School of Transportation Engineering, Kunming University of Technology, Kunming 650500, China"}]}],"member":"1968","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2024,5,16]]},"reference":[{"key":"ref_1","unstructured":"(2024, April 03). 2020 China Statistical Yearbook.
