Provides insights into how health and safety can be more
effectively integrated into the procurement, design, and management
of construction projects This book aims to explore the ways in
which technological, organizational, and cultural strategies can be
combined and integrated into construction project management to
produce sustained and significant health and safety (H&S)
improvements. It looks at design and safety practices, work
organization, workforce engagement and learning, and offers ideas
for producing systemic change. Integrating Work Health and Safety
into Construction Project Management addresses how best to achieve
safety in design through the adoption of a stakeholder management
approach. It instructs on how to drive H&S improvements through
supply chain integration and responsible procurement and project
management practices. It examines the components of a culture for
health and safety and the development of a cultural maturity model.
The book discusses the potential to improve H&S through the
provision of conditions of work that afford workers a positive
work-life balance. It also covers how advanced technologies and the
application of techniques developed from health informatics can
support real time analysis and improvement of H&S in
construction. Lastly, it looks at the benefits associated with
engaging workers and using their tacit H&S knowledge to inform
work process improvements. This text also: Provides new and
non-traditional ways of thinking about H&S Focuses on
technological, organizational, and cultural integration Offers a
multi-disciplinary perspective provided by an internationally
recognized research team from the social sciences, engineering,
construction/project management, and psychology Presents, in
detail, the collective analysis from a broad-ranging ten year
program of collaborative research Contains a rich range of industry
case studies Integrating Work Health and Safety into Construction
Project Management is an excellent resource for academics and
researchers engaged in research in construction H&S, as well as

H&S courses. It will also be beneficial to consultants, policy
