The keywords utilized were "safety culture," "OHS," and "safety management system" in the construction industry. The inclusion criteria were articles published within the last five years (2020-2024), research conducted in Indonesia, and the research population comprising construction sector workers.Results: The implementation of OHSMS in the construction sector has been demonstrated to significantly reduce the incidence of work-related accidents and injuries, while simultaneously enhancing the efficiency of construction projects. The effectiveness of the construction sector work system is contingent upon a number of factors, including the level of awareness among workers regarding safety protocols, their mindset, and the budgetary allocation towards ensuring the safety and health of workers in the construction sector.Conclusion: The findings of this study also revealed that the implementation of an OHSMS in the construction sector can effectively reduce accidents and enhance project efficiency.
