USE OF GOOD SAFETY MANAGEMENT PRACTICES

The consortium of two Finnish construction companies, Skanska and NCC Finland, decided to improve the safety of constructions sites by running a safety project at a shopping-centre construction site called Sello. Due to the large scale of the Sello construction site, the safety challenges in this project were estimated to be more complicated than those of a traditional, smaller, construction site. The aim was to have high level of safety performance, which could be measured by indicators, such as lack of serious accidents. The main actions were to identify and use the most appropriate (site specific) good safety management practices, as well as to further develop the safety management process of a large scale construction site.
