Impact of Construction Health and Safety in Economic Growth
Abstract There is a great deal of interest in occupational health and safety (OHS) in the infrastructure sector of most developing countries. A lot has been said about how dangerous the infrastructure sector is on OHS. Given the poor record of OHS in the infrastructure sector, it is of interest to understand how this affects economic growth. This paper employs a descriptive analysis of data collected using a structured questionnaire to examine how OHS impacts on economic growth. The impact has been measured in terms of the degree of satisfaction of customers’ needs in terms of budget. The use of the SERVQUAL model in the analysis of the results reveal that OHS has a positive impact on project delivery. This can be construed to mean that the implementation of OHS in the infrastructure sector has a potential to positively influence GDP growth in developing countries.
