Abstract

Assessing possible risks in construction projects helps predict risks and plan risk management strategies. In construction projects, many factors can affect project completion, including the risk of work accidents. This research aims to look for Occupational Health and Safety risk factors for COVID-19 in construction projects by conducting a literature study on several previous studies. The research methodology is a literature search using the Publish or Perish application. Relevant literature is then used as a source of research. Based on the results of a literature study, twenty-eight risk factors are considered to have the potential to occur in construction projects consisting of eighteen OHS risk factors and ten COVID-19 risk factors. The five most common risk factors for OHS in previous studies were: falling from a height, being hit by material, being electrocuted, being scratched by workers, being punctured by material, and being hit by heavy equipment.

Abstract

The Covid-19 pandemic has weakened various business sectors, including the construction services business. This research aims to identify OHS risks in building construction projects during the Covid-19 pandemic, provide an assessment and provide control solutions for these risks. The research method begins with identifying risk factors and distributing risk assessment questionnaires to thirty building construction companies. Then determine the risk rating with the Relative Importance Index (RII) and the risk category using the AS/NZS 4360:2004 standard. The risk control questionnaire was finally distributed to three selected respondents, including a director, a project manager, and an OHS manager, all of whom have at least an undergraduate degree. Based on the analysis, it is found that there is a similarity in the ranking of risk factors from the calculation of the RII value and the AS/NZS 4360:2004 standard, indicating that there is a positive and significant relationship between these two methods. The top three risk factors based on RII are: Covid-19 spread, falling from a height, and being electrocuted. Based on the AS/NZS 4360:2004 standard, these three factors are considered high and moderate risk, while the risk control solutions are: comply with and implement health protocols, use PPE, strong/sturdy scaffolding, install safety nets, arranging safe electrical lines, conduct socialization, and educate workers about Covid-19.
