Abstract: The goal of this study was to look into the effect of health and safety practices on nonmanagerial employee job performance in the apparel industry. (With special relevance to the Kegalle District) The independent variables were occupational health and safety practices such as management of occupational hazards, safety training, hazards information system, and personal protective equipment. The dependent variable was considered to be employee job performance. The study’s sample consisted of two garments (MAS Holdings (PVT) LTD and Brandix Apparel Solutions Limited). Following that, proportionate stratified sampling was used to select 225 non-managerial employees from among these garments. Non-managerial employees were polled using a questionnaire. The interval measurement scale was used for both the independent and dependent variables. The Statistical Package for Social Sciences (SPSS) version 21.0 was used to analyze the data. For univariate analysis, mean and standard deviation were used for all variables, while correlation coefficient and regression analysis were used for bivariate analysis. A positive relationship was discovered between Management of occupational hazard and employee job performance. There was a link between safety training and non-management employees’ job performance. Hazards information system was also found to be positively correlated with employees’ job performance
