We study linear operators from a non-locally convex Orlicz space $L^Φ$ to a Banach space $(X,||·||_X)$. Recall that a linear operator $T:L^Φ → X$ is said to be σ-smooth whenever $uₙ\longrightarrow\limits^{(o)} 0$ in $L^Φ$ implies $||T(uₙ)||_X → 0$. It is shown that every σ-smooth operator $T:L^Φ → X$ factors through the inclusion map $j:L^Φ → L^{Φ̅}$, where Φ̅ denotes the convex minorant of Φ. We obtain the Bochner integral representation of σ-smooth operators $T:L^Φ → X$. This extends some earlier results of J. J. Uhl concerning the Bochner integral representation of linear operators defined on a locally convex Orlicz space.
