The construction industry has been found the most dangerous on health and safety criteria, particularly in developing countries. In India, to achieve on-site health and safety, we have identified constitutional and legal provisions related to health and safety in construction. We have also identified some national autonomous bodies whose objectives are to achieve health and safety in the building.
