Abstract: This study examines the influence of occupational health and safety (OHS) practices on the job performance of women employees in the Information Technology (IT) sector. With increasing gender diversity in the workforce and the growing importance of the IT industry, understanding the factors that contribute to job performance among women employees is crucial for organizational success and employee well-being. The research adopts a quantitative approach, employing a structured questionnaire survey to collect data from women employees working in various IT companies. The survey measures the perceived effectiveness of OHS practices and their impact on job performance. The questionnaire includes items related to the physical, psychological, and social aspects of OHS, as well as indicators of job performance such as productivity, efficiency, and satisfaction. The findings reveal that effective OHS practices significantly influence the job performance of women employees in the IT sector. The results highlight the importance of physical safety measures, such as ergonomic workstations and proper safety protocols, in reducing work-related injuries and enhancing productivity. Additionally, psychological factors such as stress management programs and work-life balance initiatives positively affect job performance by reducing burnout and increasing job satisfaction. Moreover, the study emphasizes the significance of social support systems within organizations, such as mentoring programs and inclusive workplace policies, in fostering a supportive and inclusive work environment. These factors contribute to enhanced job performance by promoting employee engagement, teamwork, and career development opportunities for women in the IT sector.
