This research was subjected to study on safety knowledge among workers in manufacturing sector. There were 201 workers from rubber manufacturing factory and ice making factory are studied in the research. The study commenced in Perlis in December 2019. Spearman’s Correlation Analysis has been used to analyse the collected data on all variables. Results obtained from the analysis showed that there are positive relationships between safety knowledge towards management commitment (p= 0.022), safety training (p=0.000), and safety rules and procedure (p=0.000). In conclusion, this study suggested that good management commitment towards safety, providing adequate safety training, and providing good safety rules and procedure for workers will lead to optimum occupational safety knowledge among workers.
