The Gap Between Tools and Best Practice: An analysis of Safety Prequalification Surveys in the Construction Industry
This study characterises safety prequalification surveys currently in use in the construction industry to identify approaches that include leading indicators of worker safety performance.
It’s an interesting collection of data, collated from surveys available in the public domain from internet searches, construction company websites, published literature, and construction industry partners. The authors have utilised a conceptual framework, based on safety theory and best practices, to categorise survey questions and find the gaps between tools and best practice.
