1.0 Safety
A culture of safety in construction
A culture of safety in construction refers to a shared commitment by everyone in a construction organization—from senior management to frontline workers—to plan and focus on safety in every aspect of their work. Safety must be a core value, not just a priority, because priorities change. Core values do not, it is deeply held beliefs of an individual and a company. It’s not just about following rules; it’s about creating an environment where safety is deeply embedded in the values, attitudes, and behaviors of all team members.
