ABSTRACT

Health and safety management is essential knowledge in a building construction site area which recognized in the guide to the project management body of knowledge. The construction industry is considered as one of the most hazardous industrial sector wherein the construction workers are more prone to accidentals. In developed countries of the world such as United Kingdom and United states of America, there is strict legal enforcement of safety in the construction industry and also in the implementation of health and safety management systems which are design to minimize ordinate accidents at work places. However, occupational safety in countries such as Nigeria, this study investigates the prevalent health and safety management practices and perceptions in the construction industry in Nigeria. The aim of this research is to identify and evaluate the health and safety management in construction projects to minimise and control health and safety (H&S) of construction workers. Questionnaire is used to collect a wide range of opinions from experienced professionals working in different construction sites for comparison between them. The reviews of the related literature are the first step in obtaining information from previously related studies. The literature reviews provide a theoretical background about health and safety management that guided the design of the questionnaire. This research concludes that the construction industry has a high number of fatalities and long-term injuries. This is unacceptable in a modern society and it also makes the industry inefficient, with days lost due to injuries. This research shows that the high rates of accidents are due to several common factors, such as poor construction planning, lack of safety in design, inadequate safety training, worker behaviour, inherent safety health and safety risk of construction and lack of knowledge of site rules.


Evaluation of health and safety in building construction site

CHAPTER ONE

1.1 Introduction

Health and safety management is essential knowledge in a building construction site area which recognized in The Guide to the Project Management Body of Knowledge (PMBOK Guide, cited by Cretu et al., 2011). Health and safety management is expected to take account of all risks and accidents that may possibly be expected that put project employees at risk. The health and safety (H & S) of any workplace is very important to diminish such risks, legally and ethically, but in mainly dangerous contexts such as the construction industry HS takes on perilous importance as daily activities of the industry are highly unsafe. It is thus important to identify suitable safety activities and strategy, accommodating potential serious Health & Safety problems (Twort et al, 2011).

Injuries and fatalities resulted in accidents in the construction industry still an obstacle clings construction industry to its infamous position as the industrial sector responsible for more occupation accidents, than any other. Consequently, the improvement of Health & Safety in construction is still an essential goal for all contributors in the construction processes. Health and safety management is likely to take account of all risks and accidents that may believably be expected that put project employees at risk, to minimize such risks. It is thus important to identify appropriate safety actions and strategies to accommodate potential serious Health & Safety problems.

As a prelude to other parts of this study, this chapter will discuss the background upon which this study was initiated, the statement of problems that led to this study, the Aim and Objectives of the study. Others are Significance of the study, Scope of work, Research Questions, Limitations of the Study and Definition of technical terms.

1.4 Purpose of the Study

The aim of the research is to identify and evaluate the health and safety management in construction projects to diminish and control risk to health & safety of employees/workers. This aim could be achieved by:

  1. Analysing the Health & Safety problems related to the construction industry and explores solutions to avoid risk on life of construction crews.
  2. Understanding side effects of construction processes on the Health & Safety of employees to reduce the site accidents and injuries.

Defense Procedure for Building Technology Researchers

In preparation for defending a project or seminar on Evaluation of health and safety in building construction site, it is imperative that as a nursing student, you demonstrate comprehensive knowledge of your research. The defense process is structured to include presenting your work, answering questions, and illustrating its pertinence. Initially, provide a succinct yet thorough introduction to your research topic, emphasizing its importance and the objectives, ensuring that both the audience and the External Examiner can understand the scope of your study.

Prior to your defense, be thoroughly acquainted with your research abstract and the critical elements of Chapter One, including motivation for embarking on this research, problem statement, objectives, and significance. In Chapter Two, be ready to cite at least two references from the literature review. For Chapter Three, you should be equipped to discuss the methodologies, tools, and techniques utilized. In Chapter Four, defend your research by justifying the findings and linking them to your research objectives.

Conclude your defense by succinctly summarizing the study and offering insightful, evidence-based recommendations. A professional dress code, such as wearing a suit and tie, is vital to create a favorable impression and elevate your presentation.

During the question and answer segment, the External Examiner may pose questions pertaining to your research. If confronted with a challenging or irrelevant question, respond diplomatically with, “Sorry, Sir/Madam, the question asked is beyond the scope of my study.” Whenever possible, direct your answers back to your research findings to reinforce your expertise.
