1. BRIEF INTRODUCTION:
This report provides individual case studies of workplace health and safety systems in
ten New Zealand organizations. The case studies were completed on contract to the
Independent Taskforce on Workplace Health and Safety1. The case studies aim to
illustrate: • the nature of health and safety systems operating in NZ workplaces • how
health and safety representatives operate in workplaces and how managers and
employees interact with regard to health and safety • how these systems and processes
are influenced by the size of the workplace, nature of industry and organizational form.
An outline of the methodology used to conduct the case studies is provided below,
followed by the case study reports.
The project entitled “Safety management and its application with case studies” is aimed
at providing safety to the workers in organization or industry.
3. LITERATURE REVIEW:
Accidents and disasters in any area of life raise urgent questions about why and how they
happened. There are usually two key concerns: to find out who, if anyone, is to blame
and to learn lessons to avoid a repeat of the incident. Child welfare services have been no
exception to this response, especially in the UK, US, Canada, Australia and New
Zealand. When children die or there are other adverse outcomes, inquiries have been
conducted to examine the services offered to the families and to learn lessons to improve
practice. Some recommendations from these inquiries have been highly influential in
shaping the development of child welfare practice. One of the earliest carried out in the
UK was the
Dennis O’Neil inquiry in 1945 (Home Office, 1945) . This revealed the inadequate
standard of assessment and supervision of the foster home in which Dennis was placed
and subsequently killed, but also reported that such low standards were prevalent.
Safety management
The main purpose of a safety management system is to provide a systematic approach for
managing safety risks in operations. SMS also aims to improve safety by building on
existing processes, demonstrating corporate due diligence, and reinforcing overall safety
culture.

Evaluation Sheet for the Micro Project
Title of the project: Safety management and its applications with case studies
ABSTRACT
The development of the construction industry depends on increasing the safety
performance. It focuses mainly on the implementation of safety management in
construction projects. It was carried out by conducting questionnaire survey among
the contractors and engineers of various construction projects for knowing the level of
safety in their projects. The survey will include information on safety such as
procedures, training and materials for safety practices, management reviews on
applying safety practices, safety incentives and penalties, safety approaches. The
survey involves a designed questionnaire and case study on safety management. The
survey tell different control measures and their rate of usage on building projects. The
survey depends on the types of accidents on building projects and their control
measures for prevent in accidents or for minimizing the accidents. Questionnaire
survey has been analyzed using SPSS software. The results of the study revealed that
there are many safety problems in the construction industry, such as lack of
knowledge about safety measures and materials which protect from safety hazardous
or damages.
1. INTRODUCTION
Construction industries are the most dangerous due to its working nature which has higher
rate of injury than most other industries . Construction accidents cause many human injuries,
lack of motivation among workers, work interruption, delay in progress which affect the cost,
productivity, and reputation. Expenses, such as medical costs, increased worker’s
compensation insurance and property damage . For these reasons, safety in the construction
industry is very important. The Major concern of Safety in construction industries is
preventing injuries and illness of worker’s .the accidents and hazards in construction sites can
be controlled and prevented by the usage of safety programs in order to reduce accident rates.
However, in developing countries, an effort must be made to raise the level of awareness,
among both employees and employers, of the importance of safety at work sites . Safety must
be the number one priority for the construction team. The construction team includes the
owner, architect/engineer, general contractor, construction manager, subcontractors and
suppliers. It is the construction team’s responsibility to ensure that the project is completed
safely with quality and economy .Good safety programs would certainly help in reducing
injuries at construction sites and also to minimize construction costs, increase productivity
and profitability and more importantly it could save lives of workers and consequently
contribute positively to the construction industry and the nation as a whole.
organization will setup the safety departments to communicate the safety instruction and
motivates to adopt safety practices. An organization should give proper work environment i.e.
to provide safety equipment’s / materials. For controlling the unsafe practices ,the site
manager has to understand the importance of safety and also has follow the safety norms and
also keep informing about safety measures to the employee. The arrange safety training to the
employees.
Safety management is essential for the desired changes in construction industries. It helps
employee to get basic knowledge about hazardous , precautions to be taken ,and use of tools
and equipment’s for safety which is to achieve quality and profit in the construction project .
Safety management has to prepare a safety manual for the organization. There are only two
safety performance measures which are applied for the construction sector as a whole; a
frequency measure and a severity measure .The frequency measure is based on the number
of accidents. A severity measure is based on the number of lost days. To improve safety
performance, initiate and maintain an organizational setup, safety department, committees
and field procedures. Safety climate refers to observations of policies, procedures and
practices relating to safety in the work place which is used to evaluate through determination
of safety climate that would enhance safety culture and positively impact safety performance
on construction sites. Prioritizing and valuing safety is to increase safety performance and
decrease employee injuries . An individual safety behavior influences and transfers positve
safety performance termed as effective way.
Safety would improve safety culture and give positive impact on safety performance on
construction projects. A safety climate questionnaire survey was conducted on the
construction sites of a leading construction company and its subcontractors. Based on survey,
two principal components were established management commitment, employee involvement
and inappropriate safety procedure and work practices.
3.RESEARCH METHODOLOGY
Questionnaire survey was conducted among site enginners to identify their opinion towards
safety management in construction industry. Survey done through questionnaires. Based on
the survey, various factors were selected. The case study was conducted by developing a
questionnaire and collecting the responses from construction firms. For the survey
questionnaires was gathered to identify the critical factors. The methodology of the study is
as presented. The questionnaire was prepared and sent to three main individuals responsible
for the project (Contractor, Client and Consultant) and the effect of each factor has been
evaluated by adopting a five-point likert scale of 1 to 5 (1 = Strongly Agree; 2 = Agree; 3 =
Neutral; 4 = Disagree; and 5 = Strongly Disagree;). The questionnaire survey was conducted
to determine the importance of critical success factors for safety management which was
observed by contractors, clients and consultants working within Construction Industry. In this
paper, factor analysis was used to identify the critical success factor for safety management
in construction industry.
The Statistical Package for Social Science (SPSS v.21) was utilized to conduct factor
analysis. The direct personal interview method and online filling using Google forms are used
for filling the questionnaire and collecting the data. The survey has been conducted at all the
levels and types of construction projects. The various levels of projects are huge level,
medium level and low level which are considered based on total construction cost and size of
the project. The questionnaires are distributed to the construction firms and the data are
collected by means of direct interview method .Then the collected data are analyzed by
means of manual method as well as using software method. The l analysis has been done by 4
approaches. They are Reliability Test, Friedman Test, One way ANOVA Test, Correlation
Test.
4.RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
Reliability Analysis
Cronbach’s alpha measures a set of value or items into a single or as a group of individuals.
In such cases, we ask a series of questions and combine the answers into a single numerical
value.
It is used to measure reliability. The value doesn’t indicate that as a single dimension , if a
cronbach’s alpha value is high Additional analyses to be performed to identify the
dimensionality. Exploratory factor analysis is one method of checking dimensionality.
Cronbach’s alpha can be written as a function of the number of test items and the average
inter-correlation among the items.
Cronbach's Alpha N of
Items
5.922 52
Friedman Test
The Friedman test is the non-parametric test for identifying the differences between groups
when the variable should be ordinal. Nonparametric means the test doesn’t assume your data
comes from a particular distribution. It’s used in place of the ANOVA test when you don’t
know the distribution of your data.
Discussion
Based on various researchers, it is observed that safety managers have the opportunity to
influence and enhance the sense of safety and the quality of the work environment. It is also
been observed that a set of recommendations and strategies is to be provide to contractors for
improving their safety performance. The most safety factors Proper arrangement for regular
collection and disposal of waste materials Workers wearing full body safety equipment while
working at heights Scaffolds designed as per the load requirement. Flame cutting and welding
taking place with proper fire precautions. Proper flooring done with adequate load bearing
capacity.
fare on the job site. In such case, the project manager is obligated to take measures to avoid
working accidents to decrease the cost of the project.

2. CONCLUSIONS
Generally, the work environments in construction activities are more hazardous, than other
industries due to the use of heavy equipment, dangerous tools, and hazardous materials, all of
which increase the potential for serious accidents and injuries. From the case studies and also
from the surveys taken from the engineers and contractors , the result of various tests would
analysis the level of safety .the basic levels of safety is most important for all construction
industries and the factors which are associated with safety namely access roads suitable for
the movement of plants and vehicles ,first aid center at site, proper arrangement for regular
collection and disposal of waste material, stacks protected from collapse , material protected
from weather and rain, proper arrangement for regular collection and disposal of waste
material, adequate water supply for sanitation workers, wearing suitable hand gloves while
handling rough object ,chemicals etc...,employees given specialized training where needed
first aid center at site safety ,material displayed on the site everyone aware of the content of
safety
policy competent safety professional available at site. From that I conclude, the basic safety
measures are needed for all types of construction. From the case study, the result gives few
safety suggestions for any types of construction are awareness of workers, commitment of
top management and the allocation of safety materials.
