Abstrakt: This paper reports on case studies of safety incidents in Malaysia. In line with the efforts to reduce accidents at construction sites in Malaysia, the objective of this study is to analyze on workplace hazard, risk and safety and proposes a recommended actions on the case analyzed. A total of five case studies were conducted, in which the cases are scope to be on construction sites in Malaysia. Five hazards are identified from the case studies, which are equipment or machine falls from height, defective sockets or electrical equipment, high unfenced and unguarded working area, sharp objects or cutting blades, and noise pollution. The effects of these hazard are studied and Fishbone diagram is used to identified the root causes that lead to the effect. HIRARC is then used for further study of the hazard identified into risk analysis and risk control. Through risk analysis in HIRARC, the risk scores of each hazard are calculated, and the risk scores are analysed into a Pareto Chart. The purpose of Pareto Chart is to study on the priority of hazards to be focus on. Control measures are suggested based on descending order of priority: defective sockets or electrical equipment, high unfenced and unguarded working area, equipment or machine falls from height, noise pollution, and lastly sharp objects or cutting blades.
