Evaluating the Impact of Hazard Information on Fieldworkers’ Safety Risk Perception
This study investigated how 181 fieldworkers rate the severity and frequency of safety incidents for five construction work scenarios. The scenarios introduced new hazards into the scenarios, assessing how workers responded, if at all. Background: · Safety risk perception (SRP) is estimated using the participants’ perception of the safety hazards severity and frequency of occurrence… Continue reading Evaluating the Impact of Hazard Information on Fieldworkers’ Safety Risk Perception
