Safety Communication in Construction Projects Communication of the human skills is the best way for effective and successful implementation of the safety program. Aim and meaning of the safety program are very difficult to understand for employees working in different industries. However Cheap NFL Jerseys From China , the risk communication design can help people work safely and bring the benefit to the workplace. According to the study from Ferguson et al. (2003), the risk communication has 3 elements in order to make it effective:
1) Usability - how easy is the material to read, remember and comprehend 2) Usefulness - the material relevant to the target audience and 3) Message framing effects - what is the influence of presenting the same risk information as positives or negatives
According to Herrero et al. (2002) Cheap NFL Jerseys China , one of the problems in safety management is the relationship between top management and workers. The lack of communication from top management to the workers could be damaged the safety management. Cullen (1990) also recognized that the break in the communications sequence between different of individuals and groups on the platform itself and the management structure is major factors contribute to the increase of the disaster.
Although many construction projects in Thailand should be intensive on safety regulation, the construction workers do not care about the safety because they are a temporary employee. This can be the deficiency of the regulation and the actual that communication can solve and share the knowledge in safety together for improving the safety procedure. Finally, all the involved parties have to keep in mind that safety is the first priority for working in the dangerous workplace like a construction project.
Mr. Somjate Chatutewaprasit made a research which the main objective is to investigate the effective communication methods in managing construction safety and health. His sub-objectives were also explored as follows: (1) to conduct an exploratory study to identify communication methods in managing safety and health; and (2) to study problems in implementing the communication methods.
Conclusion
This study was concentrated on medium to large scale construction projects and focused on safety communication methods and the effectiveness of each safety communication methods.
For the main objective which is to investigate the effective safety communication methods in managing construction safety and health by using the correlation between frequency (action) with the level of safety awareness and level of understanding (output) Cheap NFL Jerseys , to explain which safety communication are suitable with each situation are concluded as follow:
- Correlation analysis between Frequency of Safety communication methods and Level of Safety Awareness showed that safety communication methods do not have any correlation with each other. The meaning of this case is that if safety supervisors increase the frequency of safety communication methods, the level of safety awareness in construction site would not increase following the frequency.
From this situation, the frequencies of safety communication methods are not related to safety awareness. Because of in construction site have many temporary workers so when temporary workers go out to work in the agriculture field. Therefore construction should recruit the new workers who not have experience of construction work. The safety communication methods are maintained by safety supervisor Cheap Kids Jerseys , but the level of awareness drop in a few months.
- Correlation analysis between Frequency of Safety communication methods and Level of New and Complex Safety Issue meant that correlation between safety communication methods with the level of understanding of new and complex safety issue.
In this case, the frequency of safety manual and procedure related to the level of understanding of new and complex safety issue. Because of when a project uses new equipment or complex work methods, safety supervisor should put the work process in safety manual and distribute safety manual handbook to all workers. The process of work use cartoon to communicate to workers it easier than letters.
- Correlation analysis between Frequency of Safety communication methods and Level of Understanding of Safety Issue for Own Team and Subcontractor Team showed that there are correlations between levels of understanding of safety issue for own contractor team and safety issue for subcontractor team with safety newsletter and safety bulletin.
For correlation between frequency of safety communication methods and level of understanding of safety issue for own contractor Cheap Youth Jerseys , the team is related together. Safety newsletter and safety bulletin can communicate safety information such as report accident record, next activities, and safety work process (from weekly work planning). Safety supervisor has to walk around and investigate workers and take pictures Cheap Womens Jerseys , after that put in safety bulletin to compare correct and incorrect work process to contractor team.
