Human Aspects of Construction Safety
Publication: Journal of the Construction Division
Volume 107, Issue 1
Abstract
The environment of construction workers influences their susceptibility to injury. A study of construction road maintenance crews in Missouri shows that the safety performance of individual workers depends substantially on how the worker responds to the work environment, particularly the mental work environment. The safer workers were those who had good working relationships with their foreman and with the employer. In addition, the safer workers were those who indicated that they had good working relationships with their fellow crew members.
