Abstract:

 In India construction industries has travelled a long distance in short period of time. construction project are dynamic they are characterized by many factors such as frequent work team rotation, exposure to weather condition, high proportion of unskilled and temporary workers. This research mainly aims at providing a safety & healthy job atmosphere for all employees to do their work and responsibilities and by minimizing impact of accidents. Hence it develops a work environment where continual improvements and learning from all accidents and mistakes.

Keywords:

Safe and Healthy work atmosphere, Measures to control, Risk and Hazards.
