Abstract:
Health and safety in the construction industry continue to fall behind many industries despite much
effort to improve the status. A considerable amount of research has been conducted to try and contribute to addressing
the problem of health and safety (H&S) in the construction industry. A number of studies have looked at the role of
various construction project stakeholders and their contribution to H&S. However there is no clear identification of the
extent to which various stakeholders could contribute and therefore influence the outcome of H&S on construction
projects. In view of the above, the current Delphi study went a little bit further and sought to establish the impact
significance of construction clients and designers on H&S. This paper will present findings from the study which is the
impact significance of clients and designers on H&S consideration throughout the project life cycle.
