Abstract

Being one of the oldest industries in existence, the infrastructure industry is quite rigid and set in its ways. This is bound to happen as when the industry is moving forward without innovation, why invest more to change. This also means the same mistakes, issues, problems and hazards continue within the system. Without innovation factors like defective equipment, human error, hazardous activities, environments dangerous to work in etc. are major causes for concern in terms of health and safety. Today there are multiple digital technologies available, some more complex and exhaustive than others, which can be explored to ensure better health and safety standards and support management of the same. With multiple emerging technologies, the intent was to explore and study, categorise, identify the target point of research, analyse the core role and lastly understand how these digital technologies can be used to improve health and safety management in the infrastructure sector. Academic databases like the ASCE library, Science Direct, Web of Science, Taylor and Francis etc. paved the way for systematic and extensive literature review process which was employed to conduct the study.
