A Quantitative Study on Construction Job Safety Analysis and Occupational Safety and Health Management
This paper aims to generate an extensive database to consolidate all the possible loss-of-control situations in construction sites using the job safety analysis (JSA) method, examine hazards, give remedial measures, and create a health and safety plan. The safety techniques of various organizations are studied from data collection questionnaire surveys conducted at 30 different construction sites in Tamil Nadu and Kerala. The questionnaire consists of 83 questions of dichotomous questions. Quantitative analysis is done using the Statistical Package for the Social Science (SPSS) software. Findings say that both the regions have their advantage and disadvantage. Both sites follow regulations and provide proper training to workers, but at the same time in opposite, both sites give improper provisions of facilities. Some sites do not maintain the record and most workers on site are not aware of the principles. Results show that the selected construction project struggles in safety and health management. The resulting findings may help the project managers in their future works in safety provisions at the construction site. Recommendations for construction safety are provided.
