Maintaining a safe environment is one of the major concerns on construction sites, but a safety-focused state of mind is often unrealistic for employees without reminders in place. During a recent webinar, a panel of experts shared their insights about the science of safety and how to cultivate a meaningful safety culture that prevents injuries. The webinar was sponsored by Engineer News-Record and Procore. "Our team worked together over the course of three years to study serious incidents and fatalities in the construction industry and in particular, to focus on how to incorporate a new concept called precursor analysis into the industry," said Matthew Hallowell, professor of construction engineering at University of Colorado, Boulder. Hallowell's team looked at previous incident reports and identified 43 precursors to safety failures. They sent five randomly selected cases to participating companies and organizations for review.
