<![CDATA[This study examines Job Satisfaction as a psychological pathway linking Perceived Occupational Health and Safety to Individual Performance among frontline construction workers in Indonesia. The study addresses inconsistent evidence regarding whether occupational health and safety is directly associated with employee performance by testing both direct and indirect relationships within a Job Demands–Resources perspective. A quantitative cross-sectional design was employed using data from 114 skilled construction workers involved in a subsidized housing project in Hulu Sungai Utara. Perceived Occupational Health and Safety and Job Satisfaction were reported by workers, while Individual Performance was rated by direct supervisors. Data were analyzed using PLS-SEM with SmartPLS 4. The results show that Perceived Occupational Health and Safety was positively associated with Job Satisfaction (β = 0.761, p < .001), but its direct relationship with Individual Performance was not statistically significant (β = 0.199, p = .106). Job Satisfaction was positively associated with Individual Performance (β = 0.454, p < .001) and significantly mediated the relationship between Perceived Occupational Health and Safety and Individual Performance (β = 0.346, p < .001). These findings highlight Job Satisfaction as an important psychological pathway connecting perceived safety-related working conditions with supervisor-rated performance.]]>
