Enhancing occupational safety within the Army poses challenges despite the existence of adequate safety legislation, as the Malaysian Armed Forces are not governed by OSHA 1994 (Act 514). Utilizing instruments developed by Vinodkumar and Bhasi (2010), this study investigated whether four key factors management commitment to safety, safety training, employee involvement in safety, and safety communication and feedback are related to the safety performance of Air Defence Artillery personnel. These independent variables were evaluated for their impact on safety performance among 343 military personnel at Bera Camp, Pahang. The analysis revealed a positive relationship between these four factors and safety performance.
