Abstract

The advantages of protecting the lives, health and safety of employees working in retail businesses are many. Studies have shown the relationship between ensuring the occupational health and safety of employees and productivity in retail businesses. Emerging retail businesses are required by law to comply with occupational health and safety guidelines in the interest of protecting the health and occupational safety of employees working in retail businesses, clients of the retail businesses, and the general environment in which business is carried out. A survey of 406 retail businesses in the Greater Tshwane geographical region found that the level of compliance with occupational health and safety guidelines was 53%. The survey identified three influential predictors of compliance (business ownership, the availability of adequate money for carrying out retail business operations, and level of awareness about the advantages of compliance with occupational health and safety guidelines).
