Antecedences adoption of the OHSAS consists of 8 dimensions namely management commitment, enforcement of rules and regulation, worker involvement, safety and health training, worksite analysis, motivation incentive recognition and accountability, pressure from production and workplace and supportive environment and consequences of adoption of the OHSAS management consists of 4 dimensions namely effective accident I incident, near miss case reporting, effective corrective and preventative action, effective communication and constant feedback arid effective hazard prevention and control. Three broadly hypnotized relationships were tested using a sample of 411 OHSAS certified companies. From the analysis done using the regressions, it shows that antecedences factors namely management commitment, enforcement of rules and regulation, worksite analysis, motivation incentive recognition and accountability were found to be positive associated with the adoption of the OHSAS management system. An implication of the adoption of the OHSAS management system has positive effects on consequences namely accident or incident and near miss case reporting, effective corrective and preventive action, effective communication and constant feedback and effective hazards prevention and control on the adoption of the OHSAS management system.
