Safe production is a fundamental cornerstone of the intelligent transformation of mines. To enhance the effectiveness of corporate safety management and effectively reduce the probability of production safety accidents, by introducing role overload, leader identification, work-family facilitation, and work-family conflict as mediating variables, a dual chain mediation model was constructed based on the work-family resources model. A questionnaire survey was conducted to collect 502 valid samples, and empirical analysis was employed to test the hypotheses of the theoretical model. The research results show that self-sacrificial leadership exerts a significant direct inhibitory effect on miners'unsafe behaviors. On one hand, self-sacrificial leadership significantly and negatively inhibits miners' unsafe behaviors indirectly through the chain mediation of leader identification and work-family facilitation. On the other hand, it significantly and positively promotes miners'unsafe behaviors indirectly through the chain mediation of role overload and work-family conflict. Mining enterprise managers should attach importance to the work-family balance of employees and dynamically optimize management strategies and leadership styles to mitigate the risk of safety production accidents.
