Abstract
Construction labor productivity (CLP) is a critical factor influencing the success of projects, especially in regions like the Middle East where unique challenges, such as extreme weather and complex labor dynamics, are prevalent. Despite the growing interest in improving CLP globally, research in the Middle East remains limited. This review aims to identify the most significant factors affecting CLP in the region, including managerial practices, labor characteristics, worker motivation, technical challenges, and external factors. Additionally, the potential of wearable technology to monitor fatigue and enhance productivity is explored, as it remains an underutilized tool in Middle Eastern construction sites. Findings from this review emphasize the need for tailored, region-specific strategies to improve CLP and drive efficiency in construction projects.
