Abstract

This study examines the construction of an occupational health and safety (OHS) governance model for small- and medium-sized suppliers (SMSs) impacted by the dual effects of core enterprises' management and media attention. The objective of this research is to improve the social governance effect of SMSs' OHS. Drawing on evolutionary economics, an evolutionary game model with three main players—core enterprises, SMSs, and media—is established, and the conditions of each entity's evolutionary stability strategy are analyzed. The results show that the evolution trend for any party is closely related to the strategic choices of the other two parties. Further, a model for SMSs' OHS governance with focus on core enterprise management and media attention can be effectively built by reducing the costs of core enterprise management, enhancing the probability of accurate media reporting, decreasing the OHS input cost of SMSs, increasing the expected exposure returns of the media, and reducing the media's investigation cost. This study is the first to consider the important influence of core enterprises and the media on SMSs' OHS behavior, which bridges the research gap not only from a theoretical perspective, but also a practical one.
