Quantifying resilience potentials in construction
Introduction The construction sector’s entrenched hazards and enduring accident statistics necessitate a paradigm realignment - from rigid, checklist-driven Safety-I models toward a dynamic, resilience-centered Occupational Health and Safety Management (OHSM) ethos. This study endeavored to architect a 36-item questionnaire - rooted in Resilience Assessment Grid (RAG) and integrated within the Occupational Health and Safety Plan (OHSP) - to inter…
Key Factors in Crane-Related Occupational Accidents in the Spanish Construction Industry (2012–2021)
The construction industry is one of the riskiest sectors worldwide, with crane operations being one of the most dangerous activities. The aim of this study was to gain insight into the key factors involved in crane-related occupational accidents in the construction industry in Spain. To this end, 1314 accidents involving cranes were analyzed from a total of 241,937 accidents that occurred in the construction of buildings. The data were collected …
New Risk Situations Related to Low Noise from Electric Vehicles
Sales of electric and hybrid electric vehicles are increasing steadily worldwide, and consequently their presence increases in city areas. At low speeds, the low levels of noise produced by these vehicles could become a new risk factor for road users. However, the magnitude of the risk has not been accurately determined. In addition, its inclusion in the work environment could pose a new risk that should be managed. Thus, in relation to low noise…
Does Europe Need an EU Product Safety Directive for Access Scaffolding
The main requirement established for the development of European Union product safety directives is to ensure a high level of safety for users. This research aims to analyze whether Europe needs a product safety directive for scaffolding and identify the main factors to be defined in public policies on the use of standardized scaffolding in the absence of such a directive. The principal types of scaffolding were reviewed, along with European regu…
Analysis of Required Investigations of Work-Related Musculoskeletal Disorders in Spain
Musculoskeletal disorders (MSD) are the most common source of occupational health problems in Western countries. In Spain, musculoskeletal disorders (MSDs) can be reported either as accidents or occupational diseases. When reported as an occupational disease, a full diagnosis is performed, as the compensation system needs the approval of the social security authority and a mandatory investigation has to be performed. Although many methods are ava…
