Abstract

The persistence of accidents, injuries and fatalities on construction sites is an ongoing concern. One of the factors that cause these negative events that are yet to be addressed widely is a safety violation, which is examined in this article. A phenomenological study was undertaken in the central region of South Africa among professionals who are active in construction. The collated textual data confirmed that unsafe worksites, negligence and fatigue, and intoxication are detrimental to safe operations during construction. Operational analysis and control is a process that can be used to help focus attention on the sources of safety violations while integrating all aspects of operational work in a way that does not harm people. The practical implication is that operational analysis and control can be deployed during various types of construction projects, including municipal engineering projects, with existing legislation and regulations.

控制建筑工地安全违规行为的操作分析
建筑工地持续发生的事故、伤害和死亡一直是一个令人关切的问题。导致这些负面事件的因素之一是安全违规,这在本文中进行了研究。在南非中部地区对从事建筑工作的专业人员进行了现象学研究。经整理的文字资料证实,不安全的工地、疏忽和疲劳以及中毒对施工期间的安全作业是有害的。操作分析和控制是一个过程,可用于帮助将注意力集中在违反安全的根源上,同时以不伤害人员的方式整合操作工作的各个方面。实际意义是,在现有的法律法规下,可以在各种类型的建设项目(包括市政工程项目)中部署业务分析和控制。
