 SCENARIO: RECOMMENDED PRACTICES FOR SAFETY AND HEALTH AT
CONSTRUCTION SITE

1.0 INTRODUCTION

The building operations and works of engineering construction industries in Malaysia have made tremendous progress in
recent years and the increase in their activities have affected the general public’s safety and health. Construction sites
create a risk not only for the construction worker, but also for the public who move around the site or who may live
adjoins them. The rapid development in MALAYSIA has brought many benefits, including improved living standards,
access to technology, and economic advancement. However, this rapid development has also produced a number of risks
to society, which can have a negative impact on human life and the environment. It can be seen that several main risks
arise due to rapid development, such as air pollution, failure of existing infrastructure as well as the failure of
infrastructure that can affect the lives of the people around them. This suggests the timing vehicle leads to ineffective
development due to failure in complying with the set construction standard. This study wants to unravel the dark side of
sustainable development that does not keep pace with the objective of advancing the development industry.
