Abstract

This project concerns at the construction and the safety management projects. Most construction projects suffer from unnecessary activities on site which indicates the need for improving construction safety, health & risk management. Hence the purpose of this project was to investigate, through site observations, the current health and safety situation on the construction site and to suggest possible solution for improving construction safety. The main focus of this project was on material deliveries and time that craftsmen spend on handling materials. The project concludes that skilled craftsmen are transporting the third part of all incoming interior materials by their selves. Due to poor health and safety planning workers are also doing lots of rework and extra work. The project shows that, by implementing other logistics solutions, it is possible to reduce the costs and also to shorten the time.
