This article examines how safety training can influence the practices of occupational health and safety at the workplace. Structural equation modeling (SEM) has been used to analysis 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 safety training (ST) has positive influence on the implementation of organization safety support (OSS) and proactive hazard control (PHC). These results imply that safety training should be enhanced in order to improve the implementation of health and safety at workplace.
