Question:
Construction workers are often killed or injured on the sites and many more suffer from severe illnesses. The construction industry's performance has steadily improved, but death, severe injury, and illness rates remain among the highest of any sector. Therefore, the stakeholders involved in construction should take proactive action to hinder such accidents from happening at the site and safety measures and control should be the utmost priority at the site.
As a project manager for a high-rise construction project, you are responsible to raise the attention of the stakeholders on the importance of hazard identification and risk assessment in different stages of the construction project ( pre-construction, during construction and post-construction ).
Thus, you are to prepare a report which consists of:
- The introduction should contain (but not be limited to) the:
Overview of the common accident and hazards at the site for high-rise projects; Definition; Roles of the relevant stakeholders etc.
- Contents:
- Explain the potentially dangerous work activities that relate to hazards in different stages of the construction project –
Pre-construction, During construction and Post-construction
- Discuss the method of hazard identification and risk assessment according to the respective construction stage.
- Propose the control measures and appropriate ways to communicate the control measures and implementation plan to the relevant stakeholders.
