[en] Safety citizenship behaviors (SCB) have never been classified following the intended beneficiary of these behaviors. This study aims to examine Hofmann et al. (2003) SCB items in an attempt to identify two dimensions: SCB oriented towards individuals (SCB-I) and towards the organization (SCB-O). Further, by drawing on Christian et al. (2009)'s model of safety performance, we examined how distal and proximal person-related factors are associated with these behaviors. Results showed that the broader conscientiousness personality trait was related to both SCB-I and SCB-O, indirectly through safety motivation and knowledge. In contrast the altruism personality facet was directly related to SCB-I only
