ABSTRACT

This chapter presents descriptive statistics, inferential statistics and hypotheses testing results based on the questionnaire analysis. The data analysis was conducted in two stages: Descriptive data analysis and Multivariate correlational data analysis including exploratory factor analysis (EFA), confirmatory factor analysis (CFA) and structural equation modelling (SEM). The chapter provides demographic information on the individual respondents. The analysed results for the descriptive data were: the respondents' background information including their individual information and the company information. Descriptive statistics such as percentages, means and standard deviation were used in the analysis. The influence of the latent variables on the endogenous variable was also reported. It was concluded that there is, therefore, no need to further improve the fit of the structural model. Further findings from the SEM results revealed that the exogenous variables' influences determine the H&S compliance of SME contractors in the Ghanaian construction industry.
