Through the integrative system, common behaviors, emotions are adopted among people, and the necessity to implement unwritten rules is internalized by individuals. This sense of necessity provides a systematic order and the order automatically operates without any external intervention. This cultural structure not only manifests itself in social life but also plays an active role in work life in the standardization of the functioning of organizations. Organizations can be managed easily through unwritten rules thanks to culture, which helps to reduce the workload of organizations and to eliminate the order by which employees are directed by other managers.The aim of this study is to define the work safety culture which is a subculture of organizational culture, to explain how it holds organizations together in respect of safety and how it helps the standardization of systems and to examine which elements the general structure of work safety culture in Turkey contains. In this context, a literature review has been carried out and the data obtained have been compiled and interpreted. © 2019 The Authors.
