Abstract: Gaining awareness of occupational health and work safety is a precursor to its implementation and compliance. This study was to establish baseline information about awareness and compliance on occupational health and work safety among employees at a local level. This quantitative research made use of the descriptive, correlational, comparative research design to assess the interrelationship among demographic characteristics, awareness, and compliance among employees in a private company for the third quarter of 2024. Findings of the study revealed that the employees were aware of the six indicators. On the other hand, the respondents were not aware of the compliance of risk analysis studies to determine risky jobs in the workplace. On the level of compliance, employees complied with the use of mask, work-clothes and the rules for cleanliness inside the workplace but were not compliant with the use of fall arrestors when working at height. There was a significant relationship between the level of awareness and level of compliance. The researcher offered the occupational health and safety plan to address the findings of the study.
