ABSTRACT=The study's overarching purpose was to investigate the impact of health education, media campaigns, and peer counsellor training on employee health. This study also attempted to evaluate the function of tobacco control as a mediator in the relationship between employee health and health education, media campaigns, and peer counsellor training. Data was collected from 440 tobacco industry workers in China using a questionnaire technique. The Smart PLS software and a structural equation modelling (SEM) technique were used to evaluate the data. Employee health was found to be significantly improved by health education, media campaigns, and peer counsellor training. Furthermore, tobacco control was discovered to moderate the association between employee health and health education, media campaigns, and peer counsellor training. By analyzing the impact of health education, media campaigns, and peer counsellor training on employee health, this paper provided an important theoretical contribution. In terms of practical applications, this article would surely help the tobacco business maintain a healthy and safe atmosphere that encourages employees to be engaged and perform well. Furthermore, this study might be effective in resolving difficulties linked to controlling employee tobacco addiction and improving their performance. The tiny sample size of this study, which included solely employees working in the Chinese tobacco sector, was one of its limitations. In addition, future study can incorporate other constructs to acquire a deeper knowledge of the factors that influence employee health.
