Abstract
Construction accident rates are reflected in the pre-qualification of public construction projects in order to prevent accidents and facilitate the safety management of construction companies. However, the construction industry is still experiencing an increase in accident rates. Hence, there is a need to strengthen existing safety evaluation systems and requirements in public construction tendering. The objective of this study was to acquire and provide basic data for benchmarking to select tenderers in domestic public construction projects. In Singapore and Japan, safety evaluation systems and requirements are applied based on various aspects in order to screen tenderers. These evaluation systems include safety regulations and institutional requirements, as well as safety performance and safety management plans of respective construction projects. This study recommends that korean public construction projects also apply similar safety evaluation systems which include comprehensive safety criteria in order to decrease accident rates in the industry.
