  • Description
  • Contents

This book explores the formation of small and medium-sized construction company's (SME) compliance with health and safety issues in developing countries. Little has been written about the formation of SME contractors' health and safety compliance for developing countries, especially, in the sub-sahara regions where construction and infrastructure development activities have significantly increased in order to serve the development mandate of those countries. Thus, this book will provides insight into construction safety for SMEs, as well as health and safety compliance, and its policy implementation trends and development.

  • Discusses the theoretical underpinnings of SME contractors' health and safety compliance
  • Presents the development and validation of a conceptual model on SME compliance with health and safety in the construction industry
  • Offers the philosophical basis for SME contractors' development in developing countries
  • Includes the current trends of health and safety compliance in construction companies
  • Provides a new model for the prediction of SME contractors' health and safety compliance
