This study aimed to assess the impact of workforce agility on private hospital nursing staff's safety behavior with the mediating role of mindful organizing. This study was cross-sectional. A self-administered questionnaire was used to collect data from 369 nursing staff. The structural equation modeling (SEM) technique was used to check the internal consistency, convergent validity, discriminant validity, and hypotheses testing. For mediation analysis, the bootstrapping technique was used. Our findings suggested that workforce agility is the possible predictor of mindful organizing, as all of these dimensions have a positive impact on mindful organizing. Reference to safety performance sub-dimensions, proactivity, adaptability, and resilience had a positive significant impact on (a) safety compliance, and proactivity had a positive impact on (b) safety participation. Further, mindful organizing was also found to be positively associated with safety performance. Evidence for mediation between workforce agility and safety performance was also observed. Proactivity, adaptability, and resilience can enhance safety performance for the nursing staff. Workforce agility can also help the organization to attain mindful organizing, which will help them to achieve operational excellence, whereas in the past, high-reliability organizations were mainly found practicing mindful organizing. This study demonstrated the key impact of workforce agility and mindful organizing on safety behaviors directly and indirectly.
本研究旨在评估员工灵活性对私立医院护理人员安全行为的影响，并探讨正念组织的中介作用。本研究为横断面研究。采用自填式问卷收集了369名护理人员的数据。运用结构方程模型（SEM）技术检验内部一致性、收敛效度、区分效度和假设检验。对于中介分析，采用了自抽样技术。我们的研究结果表明，员工灵活性可能是正念组织的预测因素，因为所有这些维度都对正念组织有积极影响。在安全绩效子维度方面，主动性、适应性和恢复力对（a）安全合规性有显著的积极影响，主动性对（b）安全参与有积极影响。此外，还发现正念组织与安全绩效呈正相关。同时也观察到了员工灵活性与安全绩效之间存在中介作用的证据。主动性、适应性和恢复力可以提高护理人员的安全绩效。员工灵活性还可以帮助组织实现正念组织，这将有助于他们实现卓越运营，而过去，高可靠性组织主要践行正念组织。本研究直接和间接地证明了员工灵活性和正念组织对安全行为的关键影响。
