    Construction Industry Council ELECTRICAL AND MECHANICAL SAFETY IN CONSTRUCTION Electrical and Mechanical Safety in Construction Research Summary RESEARCH SUMMARY FOREWORD The Construction Industry Council (CIC) Research Fund was established in September 2012 to Further to the two rounds of focus group meetings and ten structured interviews, a General Safety Image of E&M Works Industry Given that fast track construction is a distinguishing feature of property development in Hong enhance efficiency and competitiveness of the local construction industry. The CIC Research Fund questionnaire survey was conducted to solicit the opinions of E&M practitioners on E&M Kong, workers are usually engaged in the dilemma between progress of works and safety at Generally, the safety image of the E&M industry is not well-developed. Some interviewees encourages research and development activities as well as applications of innovative techniques that works’ safety. The survey can be regarded as a supplement to provide quantitative data works. Despite knowing of the hazards associated with their works, some workers still select expressed that safety culture is not fully established within the E&M industry. A good directly meet the needs of the industry. Moreover, it also promotes establishment of standards and providing more insights to the team to formulate a more complete and effective safety scarifying safe operation for the convenience of works. safety culture within the industry or working environment is essential for stimulating safety good practices for the construction industry now and into the future. measures for E&M works. Based on the combined findings from the focus group meeting, behaviour of workers.

E-mail: [email protected] Abstract Considering a process view of design, this paper presents guidelines for integrating safety into that process in the construction industry. Two major sources of evidence were used for developing the guidelines: (a) interviews with seven designers from the construction industry; (b) an empirical study of the integration of safety into design in an industrial building project. It is proposed that design for construction safety (DFCS) is organized as a multi-stage managerial process, starting with a preparatory stage involving decision-making on the major standards to be adopted during that process (e.g. stakeholders and their responsibilities). Then, the proposition is made that, during all stages of design (e.g. conceptual design, executive design), the safety integration into that process follows the stages of the risk management cycle: identification, assessment, response and monitoring. The risk management tasks should be supported both by existing databases of practical suggestions to integrate safety in the design and by a set of DFCS principles.

Continued progress is being made in the areas of education and training to better serve all participants in the construction industry, including owners, designers and contractors. Construction management has also become an acceptable and growing profession as it serves to address constructability issues through the sharing of information among all participants in the project. This paper offers a construction management (CM) approach to designing for construction safety by proposing a structured CM approach to information sharing and project collaboration for construction safety. The proposed structured CM approach has been developed based on the findings of a structured survey targeted to design and CM professionals in the construction industry. Keywords: DFCS, Construction Management, OSHA 1. INTRODUCTION Designing for construction safety entails addressing the safety of construction workers in the design of the permanent features of a project.

Using Delphi Panels to assess construction safety research to practice: a narrative review INTRODUCTION: Despite ongoing efforts to improve site safety, the construction field still accounts for a disproportionate injury rate and remains one of the most dangerous industries for workers. The Delphi Method is a systematic procedure that is employed to achieve a reliable consensus among a selected panel of experts. This project’s purpose was to review relevant papers and research on Delphi Panels and their potential use in assessing whether construction safety and health research findings are being used by target audiences of workers and contractors to reduce injuries and illnesses (research to practice). A secondary objective of this review was to understand the parameters of panel selection, composition, and analysis. This project will help contribute to the broader dissemination and implementation field. The Delphi method was developed in the mid-1950’s by a group of researchers in the fields of forecasting and planning at the RAND Corporation (Dalkey & Helmer, 1963).

  • RR1082 Research Report
    Health and Safety Executive The effectiveness of HSE’s regulatory approach: The construction example Prepared by Frontline Consultants for the Health and Safety Executive 2016 RR1082 Research Report Health and Safety Executive The effectiveness of HSE’s regulatory approach: The construction example Mike Webster and Helen Bolt Frontline Consultants Central Court 25 Southampton Buildings London WC2A 1AL Prepared in December 2013 This project has examined the effectiveness HSE’s approach to regulation of the construction sector since 2001. HSE provided a catalyst for change – utilising its unique information on the industry and expertise in understanding reasonably practicable control to support risk creators in their control of these risks. HSE worked through the supply chain by engaging and acting in partnership with those able to bring about widespread change – such as company directors, or strategic bodies focused on particular interest groups or sectors. New broader intervention approaches were designed to allow HSE to engage appropriately at critical points in the supply chain. In light of HSE’s work with the construction industry - and the industry’s efforts to take responsibility and make good health and safety a priority - substantial improvements in health and safety management and performance can be identified. A number of key messages are identified, to be considered in the application of such approaches to other industry sectors. These are necessary elements to enable effective engagement with a sector and for the sector to take up the mantle to ‘be part of the solution’ and achieve sustained improvement in health and safety performance. This report and the work it describes were funded by the Health and Safety Executive (HSE).
