Empirical Analysis On Construction Safety – A Case Study
Miss Smita A. Bhole
(Civil Engineering Department , SSGBCOET, Bhusawal)
I. INTRODUCTION
Safety in the construction industry has always been a major
issue. Though much improvement in construction safety has
been achieved, the industry still continues to lag behind most
other industries with regard to safety. The safety climate of
any organization consists of employee’s attitudes towards and
perceptions of, health and safety behaviour. Construction
workers attitudes towards safety are influenced by their
perceptions of risk, management, safety rules and procedures.
A measure of safety climate could be used to identify those
areas of safety that need more attention and improvement. The
dynamic nature of safety climate, which has the ability to
change on daily basis, means there is a great need for reliable
tools that can measure safety climate. Safety climate is a
leading performance indicator that can provide insight into
safety performance before accidents have occurred.[1]
Management and planning is one way to avoid unplanned
events. Since accidents are unplanned events, an effective
safety management can help avoid job injuries. Safety
management must be through, and it must be applicable to all
aspects of the job, from the estimating phase of the project
until the last worker has left the premise at the completion of
the project. All parties to a construction project must be
included in some way in the safety program every party is
responsible. The construction industry continues to be one of
the most physically demanding and dangerous industries in
the India. Measuring safety climate is still relatively new
when compared with the concepts of social and work climate.
Previous to Zohar’s [2002][12]
The Construction activities in developing countries, such as
Pakistan, China and India, are more labour intensive that in
the developed areas of the globe, involving 2.5-10 times as
many workers per activity. Typically workers tend to be
unskilled and migrate in a group, with or without their
families, throughout the country in search of employment. In
fact, they are usually divided into various factions.
Communication problems related to difference in language,
relation and culture tend to inhibit safety on the work site. The
major injuries faced by contracting firms in India on their
projects site, in descending order of occurrence, were given as
follows:
 Fall injuries.
 Struck by wastage and raw materials.
 Heat stroke.
 Head injuries.
 Eye injuries.
The improvement of safety, health and working conditions
depends ultimately upon people working together, whether
governments, employers or workers. So safety management is
applying safety measures before accidents happen. Effective
safety management has three main objectives:
 To make the environment safe
 To make the job safe
 To make workers safety council
II .CAUSES OF ACCIDENT
An incident is any unplanned event that causes injury. A
dangerous occurrence is any event that could have caused
injury, but did not. The term "incident" will be used to
describe both incidents and dangerous occurrences. There are
many possible causes of accidents as they are occasions.
Among these are: technical defects in equipment and
methods of work, defects in organization and dangerous acts
by workers. To these have to be added those causes that
come from the nature of construction operations themselves,
defects in planning and construction, constant changes in

Abstract:
During the Safety in the construction industry has always been a major issue. Though much improvement in
construction safety has been achieved, the industry still continues to lag behind most other industries with regard to safety.
The construction safety of any organization consists of employee’s attitudes towards and perceptions of, health and safety
behaviour. Construction workers attitudes towards safety are influenced by their perceptions of risk, management, safety rules
and procedures. A measure of safety could be used to identify those areas of safety that need more attention and improvement.
The aim of the study was to identify factors in the safety management that any lead project success. these factors influence
construction safety. In this project questionnaire is framed to find safety in major organisations. data is collected on the basis
of questionnaire. Employees of various construction firm are interviewed. Collected data is analysed statistically. this analysis
is show the safety environment among organisation. it also gives suggestion to improve safety at construction site.

III . TO STUDY CRITICAL FACTORS AFFECTING
SAFETY
Introduction
In general, accidents at work occur either due to lack of
knowledge or training, a lack of supervision, or a lack of
means to carry out the task safely, or alternatively, due to
an error of judgment, carelessness, apathy or downright
reckless Never the less, according to a report by the HSE
(cited in6 , nearly 90% of all construction accidents
leading to death could (or should) have been prevented,
70% by positive management action. Therefore, the
specific objectives of this research are: rest, to correlate
the operatives' background and attitude towards safety
with their accident or non accident records. Second, to
determine the group of factors that has the most react on
site safety, utilizing the Factor Analysis Technique.
A. Organizational Context
i. Management Commitment
Management commitment for safety is “The extent to
which management is perceived to place a high priority
on safety and communicate and act on safety issues
effectively.[1]
Organizations should have effective systems in place for
the management and co-ordination of safety. This should
be led by a strategic safety management team.[2]
ii. Communication
Spoken and written communication can be critical in
maintaining safety. This can include general communications in
the form of safety information, communications between team
members or between different teams during operations or
maintenance work, and emergency communications.
The improvement of safety communication can provide
immeasurable benefits for contractors by reducing accidents,
lowering costs, improving productivity and providing improved
value for the construction client.[3,4]
iii. Priority Of Safety
Organizational climate theory suggests that workgroup
members form consensual conceptions on expected role
behaviour, based on perceptions of organizational policy,
procedures and practices. This contributes to perceived order,
but also to the creation of order by inference from these
perceptions. From perceptions of organizational policies,
procedures and practices, organizational members thus infer the
relative value of different organizational goals, such as for
example safety performance. Accordingly, safety behavior may
partially be considered contingent on beliefs that such behavior
is expected, and will be awarded in the organization.[5,6]
Iv Safety Rules And Procedure
Construction is a high hazard industry that comprises a wide
range of activities involving construction, alteration, and/or
repair. Examples include residential construction, bridge
erection, roadway paving, excavations, demolitions, and large
scale painting jobs. Construction workers engage in many
activities that may expose them to serious hazards, such as
falling from rooftops, unguarded machinery, being struck by
International Journal of Engineering and Techniques - Volume 2 Issue 4, July – Aug 2016
ISSN: 2395-1303 http://www.ijetjournal.org Page 48
heavy construction equipment, electrocutions, silica dust, and
asbestos.
The issue of health, safety and environment (HSE) remains one
of the top priorities in the local, regional and global construction
industry. Efficient health and safety at workplace not only
ensures that employees are happy and productive, but can also
help to reduce both the human and business costs of injuries and
unnecessary lawsuits. In common-law jurisdictions, employers
have a common law duty to take reasonable care for the safety
of their employees.[16]
By making health and safety the priority,
construction companies are effectively communicating that
competent employees are a valuable resource in the industry.
Additionally, improved health and safety standards help
companies become more effective to finish projects on time and
improve their business profile with customers and clients. By
introducing basic health and safety standards, organisations can
understand the human capital benefits this has across the
company. Management must not only provide their workers
with the right safety tools at work, but also equip and induct
them with understanding on proper use and maintenance of
these tools. Several organisations, for instance, focus on
educating and explaining HSE rules and regulations to
employees, contractors and vendors, as well as utilizing industry
experience to implement such standards. HSE standards and
technical specifications must first be discussed and implemented
before any person steps onto any construction site, whether in
an established building or a new site. Also, gaps between local
and international HSE standards can be bridged through an
approach that involves a method statement, risk assessment and
job safety analysis.[4]
B. SOCIAL ENVIRONMENT
i. Supportive Environment
Supportive environment refers to the degree of trust and
support within a group of workers, confidence that people
have in working relationships with co workers, and
general morale. Having a supportive work environment
demonstrates workers’ concern for safety and fosters
closer ties between them. Co workers’ attitude toward
safety has been widely included in safety climate
studies.[5] Thus, The higher the level of support given by
co workers, the more positive the safety climate. Social
support and production pressure can directly affect
workers’ safety behaviour, safety motivation and safety
knowledge. Workers’ on-site safety behaviour is related
to their safety motivation and safety knowledge. Workers
are more motivated and competent in a supportive
environment. When production pressure increases, both
safety motivation and knowledge decrease.[5]
ii. Involvement
Workers are a company's greatest asset. Nothing is
possible without them, and the quality of the company's
output is dependent on their efforts, skills, insights and
commitment. Workers are directly affected by safety and
health problems on a worksite. Usually, they are the ones
hurt or killed when safety programs fail. As a result, they
have a direct interest in their success. Worker
involvement in safety is a two-way process where
employers and employees can work together on spotting,
solving and owning health and safety problems.
It seems likely that employee involvement will be an
important part of any Injury and Illness Prevention Plan
(I2P2) Standard that OSHA proposes (an I2P2 standard is
among the agency's top priorities). [6]
C. INDIVIDUAL APPRECIATION
i. Personal Priority And Need For Safety
Construction work is a dangerous land-based job. Some
construction site jobs include: building houses, roads,
workplaces and repair and maintain infrastructures. This
work includes many hazardous task and conditions such
as working with height, excavation, noise, dust, power
tools and equipment. Construction work has been
increasing in developing and undeveloped countries over
the past few years.[7]
Ii Personal Appreciation Of Risk
Employees’ attitudes towards safety are one of the most
important indices of safety climate. Attitudes towards
safety have been found to be associated with personal risk
perception. Individuals, however, differ in their
perception of risk and willingness to take risks.[8,9,10]
D. WORK ENVIRONMENT
I. Physical Work Environment [11]
It is not just management participation and involvement
in safety activities that is important, but the extent to
which management encourages the involvement of the
workforce. Moreover, management must be willing to
devolve some decision-making power to the workforce by
allowing them to become actively involved in developing
safety interventions and safety policies, rather than
simply playing the more passive role of the recipient
Workers’ involvement includes such issues as procedures
for reporting injuries and potentially hazardous situations.
Thus, The higher the level of workers’ involvement in
safety matters, the more positive the safety climate.
IV . RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
Data required for investigation is collected from these
sites. Main cause of injuries on construction site is lack of
safety management. Safety management includes all level
interest to reduce the accidents and injuries. Safety
culture on construction site by observing the behaviour of
workers during the activities. Also safety climate can be
understand by not only observing the relationship
between owner and employers but also their personal
views about safety.

Mean, median, and mode are three kinds of "averages".
But we have taken only mean and mod in analysis. The
"mean" is the "average" you're used to, where you add up
all the numbers and then divide by
numbers. The "mode" is the value that occurs most often.
If no number is repeated, then there is no mode for the list.
ii. Standard Deviation
Standard deviation is a measure of the
of data from its mean. The more spread apart the data, the
higher the deviation. Standard deviation is calculated as
the square root of variance.
Where, σ = The standard deviation
x = each value in the population
x = the mean of the values
N = the number of values.
iii. Variance
Variance is a measurement of the
numbers in a data set. The variance measures how far
each number in the set is from the mean. Variance is
calculated by taking the differences between each number
in the set and the mean, squaring the differences (to make
them positive) and dividing the sum of the squares by the
number of values in the set.

V . RESULT AND DISSCUSSION
Having completed the analysis of the findings from the
questionnaire survey, documentation review and interview
discussion, it was found that some findings in certain safety
factor have certain different with the each others in two
companies. In order to facilitate further discussion, all
findings were consolidated in this chapter.
While quantitative results from the Questionnaire Survey
showed that the respective departments have encouraged
safety performance related to hazard control and
implementation, the qualitative results from the interview
suggested a somehow different scenario in which respondents
still considered that a lot had to be done in this area. This
reflected a situation in which continuous improvement in
related safety performance needed to be maintained to meet
We have surveyed two different companies. All the data is
drawn from interview of respondents. It includes all four
factor opinion of respondents. This data shows the deviations
of opinion in employees of organisation. And deviation
indicates safety concern of safety. If SD is increasing towards
1 then it shows variations of opinion. Which means there is
dissatisfaction of safety.

Average SD is different for the different critical factor of
safety at construction site. In this survey Analysis of
questionnaire shows that all responses are resulting towards
satisfactory safety implementation. This organization has
more involved in safety of employees. They have good
communication with workers and very good safety
environment on construction site. I have also observed that
organization provides all necessary trainings and preventive
measures of safety. They are much concern about safety of
worker. This type of safety environment promises the safety
of workers. Due to such environment they have less
percentage of hazards and injuries because of unsafe work.
Which results into fully satisfied project success.
Even though results are satisfactory, some factors should be
given more attention to improve safety. Some factors like
organizational commitment, supportive nature and personal
appreciation of risk, has a chance of improvement.

much importance are given to factors.
Graph .No.3 Questionnaire Survey Result of PROJECT II
Above table and graph represents the results of
questionnaire survey. The values showed in table no 7.4 are
increasing towards 1. Which indicates the conflict about
safety on construction site. Value shows that there is too
much negligence about worker safety. As we observed on
site, there is minimal communication between management
and employees. Which is not good for safety, it results into
hazards at construction site. Also priority of safety has
second choice of management, they give more importance
to work and duration. It also shows that the work
environment is really need to be improved. This results and
observations show hazard and injury risk are increased.
Which increases the project duration and create problems to
success the project?
However employees are very supportive in nature. They are
aware about safety of their own life. Workers are also
involves in safety related programmes.
C. COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF PROJECT I
AND PROJECT II
This is the summarized data from all stages of people in
both company construction site and this chart gives their

Graph. No. 4 Comparative analysis of PROJECT I AND
PROJECT II
The result shows that Project I is nearer to zero which accepts
our condition. Value nearer to zero shows that employees
responses are constant. In project II it is increasing towards
one. Which shows there are conflicts on safety providation.
Employees are not satisfy with safety providation. In project II
quality and safety should be integrated to achieve better
coordination and utilization of resources.
VI . CONCLUSIONS
Construction industry is considered as the back bone of the
country. As this industry contributes to development of
country. By going through the project work the following
conclusions are drawn; As the safety is most important issue
also Duties and responsibilities of each and every one in
construction industry are at- most important, failing to which
leads to various consequences. Also Rules and regulation of
safety are discussed in this study. As We compared two
companies, critical factors of safety should be taken account
in safety polices of company. It will help to reduce hazards at
construction sites shows the exact safety policies The
significant difference in the level of safety among companies
under consideration is mainly due to organizational Context
consists of Priority of Safety and Safety Rules and Procedures
and Individual Appreciation consist of personal priority and
need for safety and personal appreciation of risk. Results of
this project analysis show that Project I has excellent safety
environment than project II. As we seen results of Project II
(SD 0.49, 0.39, 0.385, 0.41 >0) are much variance among all
workers in that company. The supervisors who act as bridge
between management and workers are strongly of the opinion
that management commitment is crucial variable to improve
safety climate in construction industry. As two Projects shows
the different result. The company having more standard
deviation is having the deviated response of the individual of
all category so the project II should have improve the
condition of safety.
There are following suggestion that the company improve
their weak critical sub factor
VII. SUGESSITION
1. To Treat employees with respect, honesty and fairness
as their safety point of view
2. Give account to the managers to realize the need for
excellence in safety. Develop a vision for safety. Prove
the employer that How can safety help you meet your
important business objectives?”
3. Demonstrate that you value worker safety.
4. Providing education safety seminar for new employees
about company’s workplace safety:
5. Getting information should be easygoing:
6. Employ safety incentive plan To Involve employee in safety
7. To make protective environment for worker Amendment for
Safety procedure
8. Make the procedure which having whole information of
safety
Always make the procedure as it having all information

  • 1. International Journal of Engineering and Techniques - Volume 2 Issue 4, July – Aug 2016 ISSN: 2395-1303 http://www.ijetjournal.org Page 46 Empirical Analysis On Construction Safety – A Case Study Miss Smita A. Bhole (Civil Engineering Department , SSGBCOET, Bhusawal) I. INTRODUCTION Safety in the construction industry has always been a major issue. Though much improvement in construction safety has been achieved, the industry still continues to lag behind most other industries with regard to safety. The safety climate of any organization consists of employee’s attitudes towards and perceptions of, health and safety behaviour. Construction workers attitudes towards safety are influenced by their perceptions of risk, management, safety rules and procedures. A measure of safety climate could be used to identify those areas of safety that need more attention and improvement. The dynamic nature of safety climate, which has the ability to change on daily basis, means there is a great need for reliable tools that can measure safety climate. Safety climate is a leading performance indicator that can provide insight into safety performance before accidents have occurred.[1] Management and planning is one way to avoid unplanned events. Since accidents are unplanned events, an effective safety management can help avoid job injuries. Safety management must be through, and it must be applicable to all aspects of the job, from the estimating phase of the project until the last worker has left the premise at the completion of the project. All parties to a construction project must be included in some way in the safety program every party is responsible. The construction industry continues to be one of the most physically demanding and dangerous industries in the India. Measuring safety climate is still relatively new when compared with the concepts of social and work climate. Previous to Zohar’s [2002][12] The Construction activities in developing countries, such as Pakistan, China and India, are more labour intensive that in the developed areas of the globe, involving 2.5-10 times as many workers per activity. Typically workers tend to be unskilled and migrate in a group, with or without their families, throughout the country in search of employment. In fact, they are usually divided into various factions. Communication problems related to difference in language, relation and culture tend to inhibit safety on the work site. The major injuries faced by contracting firms in India on their projects site, in descending order of occurrence, were given as follows:  Fall injuries.  Struck by wastage and raw materials.  Heat stroke.  Head injuries.  Eye injuries. The improvement of safety, health and working conditions depends ultimately upon people working together, whether governments, employers or workers. So safety management is applying safety measures before accidents happen. Effective safety management has three main objectives:  To make the environment safe  To make the job safe  To make workers safety council II .CAUSES OF ACCIDENT An incident is any unplanned event that causes injury. A dangerous occurrence is any event that could have caused injury, but did not. The term "incident" will be used to describe both incidents and dangerous occurrences. There are many possible causes of accidents as they are occasions. Among these are: technical defects in equipment and methods of work, defects in organization and dangerous acts by workers. To these have to be added those causes that come from the nature of construction operations themselves, defects in planning and construction, constant changes in RESEARCH ARTICLE OPEN ACCESS Abstract: During the Safety in the construction industry has always been a major issue. Though much improvement in construction safety has been achieved, the industry still continues to lag behind most other industries with regard to safety. The construction safety of any organization consists of employee’s attitudes towards and perceptions of, health and safety behaviour. Construction workers attitudes towards safety are influenced by their perceptions of risk, management, safety rules and procedures. A measure of safety could be used to identify those areas of safety that need more attention and improvement. The aim of the study was to identify factors in the safety management that any lead project success. these factors influence construction safety. In this project questionnaire is framed to find safety in major organisations. data is collected on the basis of questionnaire. Employees of various construction firm are interviewed. Collected data is analysed statistically. this analysis is show the safety environment among organisation. it also gives suggestion to improve safety at construction site.

III . TO STUDY CRITICAL FACTORS AFFECTING SAFETY Introduction In general, accidents at work occur either due to lack of knowledge or training, a lack of supervision, or a lack of means to carry out the task safely, or alternatively, due to an error of judgment, carelessness, apathy or downright reckless Never the less, according to a report by the HSE (cited in6 , nearly 90% of all construction accidents leading to death could (or should) have been prevented, 70% by positive management action. Therefore, the specific objectives of this research are: rest, to correlate the operatives' background and attitude towards safety with their accident or non accident records. Second, to determine the group of factors that has the most react on site safety, utilizing the Factor Analysis Technique. A. Organizational Context i. Management Commitment Management commitment for safety is “The extent to which management is perceived to place a high priority on safety and communicate and act on safety issues effectively.[1] Organizations should have effective systems in place for the management and co-ordination of safety. This should be led by a strategic safety management team.[2] ii. Communication Spoken and written communication can be critical in maintaining safety. This can include general communications in the form of safety information, communications between team members or between different teams during operations or maintenance work, and emergency communications. The improvement of safety communication can provide immeasurable benefits for contractors by reducing accidents, lowering costs, improving productivity and providing improved value for the construction client.[3,4] iii. Priority Of Safety Organizational climate theory suggests that workgroup members form consensual conceptions on expected role behaviour, based on perceptions of organizational policy, procedures and practices. This contributes to perceived order, but also to the creation of order by inference from these perceptions. From perceptions of organizational policies, procedures and practices, organizational members thus infer the relative value of different organizational goals, such as for example safety performance. Accordingly, safety behavior may partially be considered contingent on beliefs that such behavior is expected, and will be awarded in the organization.[5,6] Iv Safety Rules And Procedure Construction is a high hazard industry that comprises a wide range of activities involving construction, alteration, and/or repair. Examples include residential construction, bridge erection, roadway paving, excavations, demolitions, and large scale painting jobs. Construction workers engage in many activities that may expose them to serious hazards, such as falling from rooftops, unguarded machinery, being struck by

International Journal of Engineering and Techniques - Volume 2 Issue 4, July – Aug 2016 ISSN: 2395-1303 http://www.ijetjournal.org Page 48 heavy construction equipment, electrocutions, silica dust, and asbestos. The issue of health, safety and environment (HSE) remains one of the top priorities in the local, regional and global construction industry. Efficient health and safety at workplace not only ensures that employees are happy and productive, but can also help to reduce both the human and business costs of injuries and unnecessary lawsuits. In common-law jurisdictions, employers have a common law duty to take reasonable care for the safety of their employees.[16] By making health and safety the priority, construction companies are effectively communicating that competent employees are a valuable resource in the industry. Additionally, improved health and safety standards help companies become more effective to finish projects on time and improve their business profile with customers and clients. By introducing basic health and safety standards, organisations can understand the human capital benefits this has across the company. Management must not only provide their workers with the right safety tools at work, but also equip and induct them with understanding on proper use and maintenance of these tools. Several organisations, for instance, focus on educating and explaining HSE rules and regulations to employees, contractors and vendors, as well as utilizing industry experience to implement such standards. HSE standards and technical specifications must first be discussed and implemented before any person steps onto any construction site, whether in an established building or a new site. Also, gaps between local and international HSE standards can be bridged through an approach that involves a method statement, risk assessment and job safety analysis.[4] B. SOCIAL ENVIRONMENT i. Supportive Environment Supportive environment refers to the degree of trust and support within a group of workers, confidence that people have in working relationships with co workers, and general morale. Having a supportive work environment demonstrates workers’ concern for safety and fosters closer ties between them. Co workers’ attitude toward safety has been widely included in safety climate studies.[5] Thus, The higher the level of support given by co workers, the more positive the safety climate. Social support and production pressure can directly affect workers’ safety behaviour, safety motivation and safety knowledge. Workers’ on-site safety behaviour is related to their safety motivation and safety knowledge. Workers are more motivated and competent in a supportive environment. When production pressure increases, both safety motivation and knowledge decrease.[5] ii. Involvement Workers are a company's greatest asset. Nothing is possible without them, and the quality of the company's output is dependent on their efforts, skills, insights and commitment. Workers are directly affected by safety and health problems on a worksite. Usually, they are the ones hurt or killed when safety programs fail. As a result, they have a direct interest in their success. Worker involvement in safety is a two-way process where employers and employees can work together on spotting, solving and owning health and safety problems. It seems likely that employee involvement will be an important part of any Injury and Illness Prevention Plan (I2P2) Standard that OSHA proposes (an I2P2 standard is among the agency's top priorities). [6] C. INDIVIDUAL APPRECIATION i. Personal Priority And Need For Safety Construction work is a dangerous land-based job. Some construction site jobs include: building houses, roads, workplaces and repair and maintain infrastructures. This work includes many hazardous task and conditions such as working with height, excavation, noise, dust, power tools and equipment. Construction work has been increasing in developing and undeveloped countries over the past few years.[7] Ii Personal Appreciation Of Risk Employees’ attitudes towards safety are one of the most important indices of safety climate. Attitudes towards safety have been found to be associated with personal risk perception. Individuals, however, differ in their perception of risk and willingness to take risks.[8,9,10] D. WORK ENVIRONMENT I. Physical Work Environment [11] It is not just management participation and involvement in safety activities that is important, but the extent to which management encourages the involvement of the workforce. Moreover, management must be willing to devolve some decision-making power to the workforce by allowing them to become actively involved in developing safety interventions and safety policies, rather than simply playing the more passive role of the recipient Workers’ involvement includes such issues as procedures for reporting injuries and potentially hazardous situations. Thus, The higher the level of workers’ involvement in safety matters, the more positive the safety climate. IV . RESEARCH METHODOLOGY Data required for investigation is collected from these sites. Main cause of injuries on construction site is lack of safety management. Safety management includes all level interest to reduce the accidents and injuries. Safety culture on construction site by observing the behaviour of workers during the activities. Also safety climate can be understand by not only observing the relationship between owner and employers but also their personal views about safety.

RESULT AND DISSCUSSION Having completed the analysis of the findings from the questionnaire survey, documentation review and interview discussion, it was found that some findings in certain safety factor have certain different with the each others in two companies. In order to facilitate further discussion, all findings were consolidated in this chapter. While quantitative results from the Questionnaire Survey showed that the respective departments have encouraged safety performance related to hazard control and implementation, the qualitative results from the interview suggested a somehow different scenario in which respondents still considered that a lot had to be done in this area. This reflected a situation in which continuous improvement in related safety performance needed to be maintained to meet We have surveyed two different companies. All the data is drawn from interview of respondents. It includes all four factor opinion of respondents. This data shows the deviations of opinion in employees of organisation. And deviation indicates safety concern of safety. If SD is increasing towards 1 then it shows variations of opinion. Which means there is dissatisfaction of safety. A.

In this survey Analysis of questionnaire shows that all responses are resulting towards satisfactory safety implementation. This organization has more involved in safety of employees. They have good communication with workers and very good safety environment on construction site. I have also observed that organization provides all necessary trainings and preventive measures of safety. They are much concern about safety of worker. This type of safety environment promises the safety of workers. Due to such environment they have less percentage of hazards and injuries because of unsafe work. Which results into fully satisfied project success. Even though results are satisfactory, some factors should be given more attention to improve safety. Some factors like organizational commitment, supportive nature and personal appreciation of risk, has a chance of improvement. B.

Each factor affects the safety of workers. This values shows how much importance are given to factors. Graph .No.3 Questionnaire Survey Result of PROJECT II Above table and graph represents the results of questionnaire survey. The values showed in table no 7.4 are increasing towards 1. Which indicates the conflict about safety on construction site. Value shows that there is too much negligence about worker safety. As we observed on site, there is minimal communication between management and employees. Which is not good for safety, it results into hazards at construction site. Also priority of safety has second choice of management, they give more importance to work and duration. It also shows that the work environment is really need to be improved. This results and observations show hazard and injury risk are increased. Which increases the project duration and create problems to success the project? However employees are very supportive in nature. They are aware about safety of their own life. Workers are also involves in safety related programmes. C. COMPARATIVE ANALYSIS OF PROJECT I AND PROJECT II This is the summarized data from all stages of people in both company construction site and this chart gives their standard deviations on the main critical factor and their sub factor in that data. Table no. shows SD result of both companies for the factor as the safety point of view.

No. 4 Comparative analysis of PROJECT I AND PROJECT II The result shows that Project I is nearer to zero which accepts our condition. Value nearer to zero shows that employees responses are constant. In project II it is increasing towards one. Which shows there are conflicts on safety providation. Employees are not satisfy with safety providation. In project II quality and safety should be integrated to achieve better coordination and utilization of resources. VI . CONCLUSIONS Construction industry is considered as the back bone of the country. As this industry contributes to development of country. By going through the project work the following conclusions are drawn; As the safety is most important issue also Duties and responsibilities of each and every one in construction industry are at- most important, failing to which leads to various consequences. Also Rules and regulation of safety are discussed in this study. As We compared two companies, critical factors of safety should be taken account in safety polices of company. It will help to reduce hazards at construction sites shows the exact safety policies The significant difference in the level of safety among companies under consideration is mainly due to organizational Context consists of Priority of Safety and Safety Rules and Procedures and Individual Appreciation consist of personal priority and need for safety and personal appreciation of risk. Results of this project analysis show that Project I has excellent safety environment than project II. As we seen results of Project II (SD 0.49, 0.39, 0.385, 0.41 >0) are much variance among all workers in that company. The supervisors who act as bridge between management and workers are strongly of the opinion that management commitment is crucial variable to improve safety climate in construction industry. As two Projects shows the different result. The company having more standard deviation is having the deviated response of the individual of all category so the project II should have improve the condition of safety. There are following suggestion that the company improve their weak critical sub factor VII. SUGESSITION 1. To Treat employees with respect, honesty and fairness as their safety point of view 2. Give account to the managers to realize the need for excellence in safety. Develop a vision for safety. Prove the employer that How can safety help you meet your important business objectives?” 3. Demonstrate that you value worker safety. 4. Providing education safety seminar for new employees about company’s workplace safety: 5. Getting information should be easygoing: 6. Employ safety incentive plan To Involve employee in safety 7. To make protective environment for worker Amendment for Safety procedure 8. Make the procedure which having whole information of safety Always make the procedure as it having all information REFFERENCES 1.
