Setting: The study was carried out on 131 staff nurses employed at all inpatient units at Main Mansoura University Hospital. Tools: Data were gathered through three tools namely, HPWS Scale, safety climate scale and thriving at work scale. Results: There was a statistically significant positive correlation between HPWS and safety climate. Dimensions of HPWS have positive correlations with dimensions of safety climate except employment security. In addition to that, a statistically significant positive correlation was found between HPWS and nurses’ thriving at work. Also, dimensions of HPWS have positive correlations with dimensions of nurses thriving at work. Conclusion: HPWS have a significant impact on increasing safety climate and nurses’ thriving at work.
