This comprehensive book aims to bridge a significant gap in the current construction health and safety research, while also uncovering fresh insights into the prevalence and occurrence patterns of chronic diseases among construction industry professionals. In pursuit of these objectives, the book delves into various aspects, including:
1. The nature and extent of psychosocial stressors encountered by construction professionals.
2. The strategies employed for stress management and their impact on mental health.
3. The prevalence and patterns of serious chronic conditions such as insomnia, obesity, musculoskeletal disorders, and vision impairment.
4. The aetiological pathways linking job stressors to chronic diseases and their influence on job performance.
While numerous studies, policies, and regulations exist to safeguard the well-being of construction workers, there has been limited attention given to construction professionals. By employing advanced analytical methods to data collected from a national survey of construction professionals in Australia, the author presents groundbreaking scientific evidence that can contribute to the development of equitable workers' compensation treatments and outcomes for construction professionals, aligning them with other professions. Furthermore, the research and analysis are grounded in theories and literature from public health and epidemiological disciplines, as well as construction, work health, safety, and wellbeing domains. This book is an essential resource for health policy makers and researchers in the fields of health and safety, as well as construction management.
