Critical Success Factors of Construction Site Safety Management in Taiwan

Abstract

This study explores the success factors (SFs) of safety management in Taiwan's construction sites using Exploratory Factor Analysis (EFA). Research results show that four critical successful factors (management level attitude, work environment safety, worker safety, and correction & prevention measures) have a significant influence on the success of safety management in Taiwan's construction sites. It is also found that ensuring a safe working environment is the primary focus of safety management in Taiwan's construction sites while safety awareness and worker training are generally inadequate.
