Abstract
Africans are said to be notoriously religious. The paper investigated the extent to which religiosity of rice farmers predicts their safety performance through safety behaviour. The PLS-SEM analysis of a cross-sectional survey data from 469 farmers indicated that safety behaviour partially mediated the effect of religiosity on safety performance.
