Safety management practices have been aggressively put into action to encourage employees' involvement and commitment towards safety-related matters but yet there are still many incidents and accidents reported involving small and medium enterprises industry. However, the study involving employees' perceptions of safety management practices and small and medium-sized safety performance companies, in particular, are also missing. This research, therefore, tests the attitudes of the workers about the partnership between safety management activities, namely adherence to safety management, employee engagement o safety, safety management program, safety culture, and safety training for better safety efficiency. Security reduction strategies enhance working conditions; favourably influence the actions and activities of workers about health, thus reducing occupational injuries. This research makes use of questionnaires as a method. The data were analysed using Structural Equation Modelling (PLS-SEM) for the Partial Least Squares. The identified Small Medium Enterprise in Kelantan received a total of 350 questionnaires, with a response rate of 300 questionnaires (85.71 percent). The analysis showed that safety monitoring activities had a good association with protection efficiency across all dimensions. These findings provide valuable guidance to researchers in identifying the mechanisms by which they may improve safety at work.
