Abstract

The field of construction is one of the most traumatic areas of human activity. Various methods are used to reduce injuries and increase the safety level at construction sites, which do not allow to reduce the level of injury risk. In other industries characterized by heightened danger, the risk management methodology based on the “human factor” management is gaining popularity. By attracting the most relevant workers, we can compensate for a significant portion of the risks. The authors propose the use this concept in the field of construction. In this paper, a study of professional fitness in construction during work requiring an increased level of attention and reaction under the influence of noise factor was conducted. For this purpose, testing was per-formed to identify the dependencies between the external effects of noise and attention indicators. During the testing the subjects demonstrated various concentration abilities. We concluded that, using this methodology, it is possible to select “successfully fit” personnel to perform specific tasks in construction, in order to increase the level of safety.

Highlights

  • The field of construction has long been positioned in the status of one of the most traumatic areas of human activity

  • Risk management based on the management of the “human factor” allows you to achieve higher safety performance in other areas associated with increased risk [11,12,13,14,15]

  • A test was conducted to identify the relationship between the external influence of noise factor and attention indicators

Summary

Introduction

The field of construction has long been positioned in the status of one of the most traumatic areas of human activity. In an attempt to reduce injuries on construction sites, addition-al measures aimed at improving the skills and disciplines of construction personnel, organizational methods of managing injuries are being developed [1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8]. The construction process today does not allow to abandon workers on the construction site, including the performance of heightened danger work. More and more research is being directed towards developing risk management methodologies that take into account human actions.
