Abstract

Construction Industry in India has changed drastically during the last few decades. It is the second largest employing sector next to agricultural sector, but first in terms of accidents close to the road accidents. From the construction of building simple structures, roads and minor civil work projects, the construction industry has changed significantly over the last few decades. Safety on construction job site has been ignored by construction companies worldwide and particularly in countries where labour force is required. Due to increasing numbers of reported accidents and injuries on construction projects, safety is becoming an important issue in construction environment today; also safety is usually discarded by its operator.
