Abstract：To elucidate the mechanism by which safety-oriented leadership influences the safety engagement behaviors of the new generation of miners,this study integrates the characteristics of this new generation and social exchange theory.It introduces the safety psychological contract and safety silence motivation as mediating variables,thereby developing a theoretical hypothesis model.The study analyzes the causal pathways and associated hypotheses using structural equation modeling and Bootstrap techniques with a sample of 342 young miners from frontline teams in Shanxi coal mining enterprises.The findings reveal that safety-oriented leadership positively impacts the safety engagement behaviors of the new generation of miners and is a crucial factor influencing their safety psychological contract and safety silence motivation.Furthermore,safety-oriented leadership affects the safety engagement behaviors of the new generation of miners via the independent and chained mediating effects of the safety psychological contract and safety silence motivation.
