Abstract

The construction industry faces a considerable number of accidents and is widely recognized for its heavy reliance on manual labor. Thus, ensuring safety in construction projects becomes of utmost importance. Despite substantial efforts from the government, industry, and academia to improve safety in construction, the occurrence of occupational incidents remains high among construction workers. Moreover, the primary aim of this study is to explore and examine the risk assessment methodology, safety training programs, and accident prevention measures. Additionally, the study focuses on investigating safety management techniques in the construction of 60,000 bags of onion cold storage and 15 Metric Tons of Block Ice Plant and their impact on various aspects of project performance and worker productivity. With that being said, after analyzing the data from the survey questionnaire, the result of Spearman’s Correlation Test in the first survey using Microsoft Excel is 0.69839, indicating that the safety management and behavioral safety performance have a moderately positive relationship. On the other hand, the result of the percentage analysis that was used in the second part of the survey from the respondents shows a positive correlation between the safety management factors and the project performance factor.
