Abstract
The principles of health, safety and environment (HSE) in different development activities, including construction, are constantly gaining in significance. This study aims to evaluate the condition of HSE management and safety climate in construction sites. In this descriptive-analytic study, 111 male employees are randomly selected. To determine HSE condition and management and safety climate condition, the NOSACQ questionnaire was used. The collected data are analyzed using SPSS. Based on data analysis a significant relationship between the mean scores of safety climate, job groups and HSE management system with job groups, education and experience (P<0.05) was found. The study results show that HSE management and safety climate in sites are relatively acceptable, that the perception of safety had no special association with age, work experience, education and that the creation of a safety climate depends on the people high in the hierarchy.
Highlights
With the development of technology and wide application of different harmful materials, the role of human resources in industrial environment is much emphasized [1]
Between the scores of Safety, Health and Environment and the number of hours worked per month, marital status, having a second job, working shift the incident was not statistically significant (p>0.05)
The study showed that of safety climate dimensions, safety management power had significant relationship with job group and education and it showed that engineers with higher education based on different managerial positions and safety management had high power in creating safety climate
Summary
With the development of technology and wide application of different harmful materials, the role of human resources in industrial environment is much emphasized [1]. This has been a result of heavy human, economic and environmental damage [2]. One of the present issues regarding human resources is the high rate of financial and life damage. Organizations have attempted to reduce these life and financial damages and these efforts mostly focus on safety culture, a term firstly employed with HSE management in organizations, companies and big industries [10]. Reaching an satisfying level of safety has not been easy [11, 12]
