| Summary: | Pakistan, being a predominantly agrarian country, has 27 million agrarian
workforces. It accounts 37.42 percent of the total workforce but suffering from a
highest occupational injuries and diseases rate (i.E., 39 per cent annually). Despite
these alarming statistics, not much attention has been given to occupational health and
safety (ohs) implementation in this sector. Therefore, this study is aimed at
excavating the key factors that can encourage ohs implementation. The proposed
model of the study was based on institutional theory. In this regard, the researcher
investigated the effect of several factors such as management commitment, safety
training, safety communication and feedback, and implementation styles on ohs
implementation. This study also examined the moderating role of mimetic motives
between these factors and ohs implementation. The data was collected from 311
pakistani agriculture organizations using drop-off pick-up method. The data collection
lasted over four and half months starting from august 2021. For statistical analysis,
both statistical package for social science (spss) and smartpls were used to analyse
the data. |
