Abstract
The common measures of measuring health and safety (H&S) performance
have, been down stream indicators. Such measures alone are regarded as
inadequate in providing meaningful information to help reduce the cause of
workplace injury or illness. Researchers have indicated that there is no
consensus on what constitutes appropriate H&S performance indicators.
This study sought to validate the identified set of leading indicators to
enable personnel of small and medium construction enterprises (SME)
monitor and improve H&S performance on their projects.
