| description | The aim of this paper is to determine the factors that contributing to occupational safety and health (OSH) performance in the manufacturing industries in Malaysia through the result of reliability test and mean values of proposed constructs. The constructs proposed for this study are based on the "leading" indicators to measure OSH performance in the manufacturing industries instead of "lagging" indicators that to some extend create complacency among the industries which do not have any accidents or faced at low risk. The study adopted the non-proportional purposive sampling methods involving thirty Registered Safety and Health Officers of manufacturing industries. The 140 items questionnaire is developed based on a five-point Likert scale. The constructs are management commitment, management engagement, employees' OSH behavior, safety climate and OSH management system. The reliability test is performed to check on the internal consistencies among the construct in measuring the OSH performance for the manufacturing industries where by the mean values representing the agreement on the constructs. SPSS version 25.0 is used in the data analysis and the results are as follows: The reliability and mean values results of the constructs are as follows: management commitment (ƛ=0.955, x̅ =4.39), management engagement (ƛ=0.941, x̅ =3.15), employees' OSH behavior (ƛ=0.781, 4.7), safety climate (ƛ=0.967, x̅ =4.07) and OSH management system (ƛ= 0.983, x̅ =4.05).
