| Popis: | First Online: 21 February 2020 The Civil Construction Industry is considered dangerous due to its dynamic nature. Occupational safety and health management systems establish, implement and maintain processes for monitoring, measuring, analyzing and evaluating safety performance. Most of the current proactive monitoring practices rely on manual efforts that, not only require a lot of work, but are also prone to errors. The main objective of this research is to propose a Worker Location-Based Safety Performance Indicator (PI), based in a technology for collecting data in a real-time procedure via sensors. The developed PI has potential to assist in measuring one key issue in construction site safety, i.e. determining the number of proximity events to hazardous areas. Using the proposed key PI as a leading safety indicator, safety performance of each worker can be taken into evaluation. It is feasible for a construction site safety manager to identify frequently occurring proximity hazards before incidents happen. The importance of this study is linked to the possibility of providing, using the proposed key PI, safety level scores that may improve safety in construction sites. (undefined) |
