Abstract
The study aimed to evaluate the impact of the components of the ISO 45001:2018 standard on occupational injuries and accidents in the Dahra field of the Waha Oil Company in Libya. To achieve this goal, the quantitative approach was employed, and a random sample of 200 workers in the Dahra field was targeted. Data were collected through a questionnaire distributed to the sample, from which 170 questionnaires were returned. The ISO 45001:2018 standard was measured through seven components referred to by the ISO45001:2018 organization in its 2024 edition, while injuries and occupational accidents were measured through a literature review of previous research and works. The study model was built based on the researcher's critical reviews, which resulted in seven hypotheses. Before testing the hypotheses, tests were conducted on the nature of the data, linearity, and homogeneity of variance. In light of this, multiple linear regression was determined to test the hypotheses. The results of the multiple regression analysis indicated that there are negative effects of the components of applying the standard specification ISO 45001 on occupational injuries and accidents. That is, the components of ISO 45001:2018 reduce these injuries and accidents. The current study recommends expanding the construction of causal models in which the application of ISO45001:2018 is a solution to organizational problems.
