Safety Under Construction - For Frontline Supervisors and Construction Workers (Paperback, 1st)

How to Make Your Safety the Key to Construction Profits and Schedule Performance. Although there are bright spots, the prevailing safety condition within the construction industry is bleak because people continue to be injured or killed in the workplace. The attitudes and hidden mindsets that create this condition are: (1). Safety is seen to slow down and even interfere with production; (2). People believe that everything reasonable that can be done is already being done; (3). We are dodging bullets and that can only work for so long; and (4). People behave strangely; don't think ahead; don't always do the right thing. The fact of the matter is you can get to zero-harm if you approach the goal scientifically, systematically, using problem-solving skills, and persisting until you get what you want. This book offers new tools and introduces the behaviors and mindsets you need to solve the most challenging safety related issues within your organization. See what other have to say: " 'Safety Under Construction' is your must-read for this year.

Clarke Sr., CEO of AIA, LLC; Certified TRIZ Specialist; Certified Organizational Engineer ALSO SEE: "I have managed many construction crews and sometimes you face a critical moment where the quality of your field-call affects lives and a successful project outcome. So much is riding on what decision you make in that moment 'Safety Under Construction' addresses this important but almost never discussed topic of split-second decision-making. Crew supervisors and managers will appreciate this valuable information. 'Safety Under Construction' raises the bar to an entirely new level of expectation for worker safety." - Ophir Orr, Construction Industry Mechanical Engineer, P.E.
