9781041019312: An Adaptive Safety Incentives Framework for Construction Organisations in Developing Economies

Synopsis

The central aim of this book is to study safety incentives in a construction context and conceptualise an incentive framework for construction organisations in developing economies. The book is a collection of knowledge on safety incentives and their impact on improving workplace safety, motivating workers' safety practices, and improving organisations' performance goals in the construction industry. With primary research conducted in Nigeria, and secondary comparisons with Ghana and South Africa, the conceptualised framework provides insight into the multi-faceted factors influencing safety incentives in the construction sector.

By explaining the behavioural approach to creating reward systems that minimize unintended consequences and maximize happiness, health, wealth, and success, the book takes a pragmatic approach to developing safety incentives and provides significant practical insights. The book identifies the gaps in safety incentives studies by critically reviewing related models, theories, and conceptual models to provide significant recommendations that support the implementation of safety incentives in the construction industry within developing countries. Guiding readers on templates for developing safety incentives, the book will interest professionals building construction, project management, quantity surveying, civil engineering, human resource management studies, OSH and owners of construction organisations as well as researchers in all these fields.
