It presents insights that promote security, hardworking spirit and comfort of employees after they are secured. This, in return, has positive impact to the national development. The Structural Equation Modeling (SEM) was used to analyse the data collected from 297 small scale mining firms, test models and test all hypotheses on direct effect of safety training on the implementation of occupational health and safety. The results demonstrate that Employees’ Communication (EC) has positive influence on the implementation of Organization Safety Support (OSS) and Proactive Hazard Control (PHC). These results imply that Employees’ Communication should be enhanced in order to improve the implementation of health and safety at workplace.enOccupational Health and SafetyManagement PracticesEmployees’ CommunicationConference Proceedings
