A descriptive analytical research design was adopted for this study. The study used primary data sources and secondary data sources to collect data. Secondary data sources include a collection of data from books, published research, scientific journals, and university theses. Primary data sources were mainly done via a questionnaire, which was administered electronically. The researchers administered and collected the questionnaires on employees working in Jordanian industrial companies using Google Forms. Responses were collected from 300 participants. The key results of the study indicate that implementing occupational health and safety standards contributes effectively to reducing work accidents. In conclusion, studying occupational health and safety is of great scientific and practical importance, highlighting the moderating role of work stress in influencing work accidents in Jordanian industrial companies. This information is crucial for developing effective strategies to reduce occupational risks and protect worker health and safety.
