Introduction: Effective safety management is essential for achieving high safety performance, which is foundational to both employee health and safety and the sustainable development of enterprises. Although substantial research has been conducted on the factors influencing safety performance, current comprehensive understanding remains insufficient. Methods: This study employed the grounded theory approach to identify and code antecedents and moderators of safety performance at four levels: individual, job characteristic, organizational, and social. Based on this analysis, it also developed influencing frameworks for each level, as well as a comprehensive influencing framework. Results: A total of 235 antecedents influencing safety performance were distilled into 47 primary categories, which were ultimately condensed into 19 core categories. At the individual level, these include individual traits, professional quality, psychosomatic health, job behavior, and safety literacy. At the job characteristic level, categories comprise job features, job conditions, organizational climate, and job stress. The organizational level encompasses leadership traits, team traits, safety climate, safety culture, safety commitment and support, safety guidelines, safety management practices, and work management practices. Finally, at the social level, categories consist of socio-economic and technological environments, as well as social safety governance. Similarly, 25 moderators of safety performance were distilled into 14 main categories, which were summarized into 9 core categories. These include personality traits, psychological status, and professional quality at the individual level; job risk at the job characteristic level; and leadership style, safety climate, safety culture, safety support, and safety campaigns at the organizational level. Conclusion: Each level exerts a distinct influence on various dimensions of safety performance, with complex interactions among the influencing factors across different levels. Practical application: The findings of this study can help enterprises identify the root causes of safety performance issues and offer valuable insights for improving safety performance across various levels.
