SAFETY PRACTICE IN ADDIS ABABA HIGH RISE BUILDING CONSTRUCTION PROJECTS: A COMPARATIVE STUDY BETWEEN DOMESTIC AND FOREIGN CONTRACTORS
It is difficult to answer the question about the similarities and differences and to see the real landscape of high rise building construction safety practices of projects managed by foreign and domestic contractors based on the past studies conducted because the studies encompassed domestic contractors only even if foreign contractors are highly participated in the sector. Besides no single comparative studies of safety practice between foreign and domestic managed projects have been done and also separately foreign managed projects are not studied. Thus this study was conducted to make a comparative evaluation of high rise building the safety practice between domestic and foreign contractor’s in Addis Ababa High rise building construction projects. In pursuing this objective, using purposive sampling projects are selected and multiple instruments interviews, questionnaire and observation were used to collect the primary data. Accordingly, the data’s are analyzed qualitatively and quantitatively for content and from the findings it was concluded that here exist differences on safety practice, both contractors are not exercising safety practice accordingly the study reveals the challenges that exist in exercising safety practice. Finally, it is recommended that both foreign and domestic contractors need to exercise accordingly and domestic contractors need to adapt using of wall protection, safety nets, and soil protection methods during construction and the rules and the regulations, standards need to know and be accepted by all stake holders in the construction sector.
