Mini-Review on Technology in Safety Training Delivery

Abstract

The construction site is in a constant state of fluidity. This constant change presents challenges for construction players who must be able to foresee hazardous conditions before they cause injuries or fatalities on the construction site. Nowadays, technology continuously improves the way the construction industry works. In line with the industrial revolution, technology evolution will improve the effectiveness of construction industry operation. Embracing technologies would benefits inefficiencies, diminishing cost and improve health and safety levels. Therefore, this paper sought to review the technologies that can be implemented in training delivery, especially for safety training. A systematic literature review has been conducted to determine suitable technology in assisting safety training. Based on the deductive content analysis, there are three types of technologies that can be used as an approach in training delivery. The findings of the study prevail which technology particularly will create digitally. It seems that this application of technology can provide a better approach to assess potential problems such as risks on the construction site. These technologies can be adapted to become a training module in order to enhance the productivity and minimise the occurrence of accidents in Malaysia construction industry.
