The construction industry has a profound impact on the health, safety, and well-being of workers, making it crucial to address issues related to human factors in safety management. Workers' behavior plays a significant role in the safety management system (SMS) of construction projects, either positively or negatively. It is essential for management teams to identify relevant behaviors and take appropriate action to address problems.
In many cases, accidents occur due to human failure, manifesting as errors, violations, and system failures. Human failure is a primary cause of accidents on construction sites, and site management must take steps to reduce hazards that can lead to these errors, violations, and system failures.
The chapters in this book explore various factors that contribute to human failure on construction sites, including factors such as workload, stress, fatigue, and lack of knowledge or skills. It also provides strategies for mitigating errors and violations through the implementation of SMS and the use of safety instructors on sites.
Furthermore, the book concludes with insights from a training-within-industry (TWI) human failure reduction framework, which offers a comprehensive approach to reducing human error and improving safety performance.
This book is valuable for safety managers, construction managers, researchers, and advanced students seeking to enhance their understanding of safety management in the construction industry. Its insights and strategies can be applied to other areas as well, making it a resource for professionals across various industries.
