According to the official statistics, construction is the most hazardous industry and a leader in terms of fatalities during accidents. In order to prevent injuries among construction industry workers, the development of a risk management system based on continuous control of compliance with occupational safety requirements by various levels of managers, as well as accident analysis, is required.
The authors conducted an audit of the state of occupational safety at 15 construction sites for the first 6 months of 2025, during which 3211 violations were recorded. As a result of the analysis of the identified discrepancies and the results of the study of scientific research on typical violations and materials from incident investigations, a classifier of hazardous actions and conditions was developed.
As a result of violations identified, it has been established that most of the hazardous actions and conditions are associated with the inappropriate organization of safe working practices, including high-risk work.
Based on the analysis of investigation documents regarding 24 accidents that occurred at 15 construction sites in the first 6 months of 2025, the most common type of accident determined has been an employee’s fall: 33 % of cases with a height difference and 29 % on a flat surface. Most of the injuries occurred due to the negligence, inattentiveness, and hastiness of employees, which is 31 % of the total number of causes.
Based on the results of occupational safety analysis in order to prevent injuries during the construction of production facilities, a digital monitoring system for high-risk work and a digital access system for employees to construction sites, including control over attendance time, automated access of employees in accordance with their competency levels and state of health, have been developed.
