Abstract
Although safety facilities have been improved and safety rules and regulations have been implemented, the accident rate in the construction industry is still higher than those in other industries. Therefore, it is proposed that preventive measures of human errors should be studied to reduce accidents further more. There are two approaches to prevent human errors. One is to improve safety facilities so that accidents are prevented, even if a worker commits a human error. The other is to establish a safety management system for human errors. The author urges the study why human errors occur at project sites and proposes four countermeasures as a part of a safety management system.
