The rapid economic growth in China has promoted the development of all walks of life. The most prominent is the construction industry. The safety management of the project construction during the construction process is very important. If there is a safety problem in construction, it will not only affect the progress of the construction, but serious loss of people and property will occur. Therefore, we should pay more attention to the safety management of the construction. Therefore, we should strengthen the management of safety management and improve the prevention of safety technology. Only under the premise of safety can the progress of the construction work be normal and the requirements of the project before the design are reached. Today we are in the engineering construction safety management problem is analyzed, and the problems of construction safety management is put forward rationalization proposals, prevent the occurrence of all kinds of problems in the engineering construction, to ensure security in project construction.

The construction industry plays a prominent part in the progress of a country socially and economically. Nowadays construction industry has grown profit driven and the management focuses more on completing the projects on time neglecting safety of the workers. Construction works involving intricate works leading to accidents or injuries resulting in loss of life and body parts are rampant. So a proper safety management system is required to avoid accidents and improve safety at construction sites. Factors affecting safety at construction workplaces were identified and was surveyed through a quantitative questionnaire and analysed to form a basis for the total construction safety management model. The Total Construction Safety Management (TCSM) based on the PDCA modelling is proposed to improve safety at construction sites. This model can act as a guide to the present organizations and helps them to implement safety in quicker manner at construction site.

In order to ensure the safety of the runway expansion project in Qingyang airport, the paper conduct an in-depth analysis of construction safety features from the aspects of construction machinery and equipment, intercrossed construction, the construction team, the surrounding environment, and the construction time limit. First of all, measures are taken in terms of the safety regulatory agencies, the responsibility realization, related management systems, safety publicity, and three-level education. Then further measures are taken from the aspects of safety investment, safety facilities, hazardous source identification, and on-site safety management. These measures work together to make the whole project construction process without any security accidents and realize the intended goal.

The application of modern technologies into on-site construction safety management has been proved that be successful. BIM technology which has been studied and developed for adopting widely in the construction industry is promised to bring significant improvements in construction safety management. The article reviewed the application of BIM in the management of construction safety, detailed for each safety work activity. Suggestions for selecting BIM tools in the management of construction safety are also listed. Lastly, the article poses some obstacles while applying BIM to construction safety management in Vietnam.

The construction industry is prone to major safety hazards owing to the complex and onsite nature of construction projects. Hence, construction researchers have been pursuing concepts, methods, and tools using advancing technologies to improve construction safety management. Subsequently, the rapid digitization of construction work practices is providing opportunities to improve construction safety. Research has revealed that construction safety management practices can benefit from the applications of virtual design construction technologies (VDC), such as building information modeling (BIM), virtual reality (VR), augmented reality (AR), geographic information systems (GIS), and gaming technology. This study comprehensively reviews 191 research articles, published between 2010 and 2019, focusing on providing an overview of the implementation and application of VDC technologies for improving construction safety. The objective of this review is to critically collect and analyze applications of VDC technologies and present a holistic view of the features and functions of VDC technologies that can impact jobsite safety improvement in the construction industry. The review showed that VDC technologies can substantially improve construction safety. Emerging digital technologies, such as BIM, VR, AR, GIS, and gaming technologies can transform the traditional document-oriented safety procedures into digitalized safety practices allowing safety managers to visualize and analysis construction sites virtually to devise proactive safety measures and effective safety trainings. This study also highlights challenges such as research gaps regarding these digital tools that are currently impeding their widespread use in construction safety.

Construction workplace safety has become serious issues among global companies. Improvement on occupational safety and health has been carried out. However, construction still becomes a sector with the highest accident rate. Particularly in Indonesia, construction contributes to 32% of accident rate followed by transportation, forestry, and mining. Main driver to improve safety performance is safety leadership as the frontline part of Construction Safety Management System (CSMS). Since it is a non-technical aspect, stakeholders’ awareness is doubtful. Therefore, this study aims to describe Indonesia construction stakeholders’ awareness of safety leadership as part of CSMS. Questionnaire was distributed to 693 respondents comprises of government, planners, consultants, private contractors, and State-Owned Enterprise (SOE) contractors. The result was analyzed with descriptive statistic to reveal the stakeholders’ level of awareness. SOE contractor has the highest awareness of safety leadership. It is considered as obvious finding since SOE contractor becomes dominant in Indonesia’s construction industry. The majority of big-classified contractors are SOE. Meanwhile, contractors’ BOD is the lowest. The BOD commonly uses managerial leadership to run the company rather than safety leadership. However, the safety leadership should be owned by every stakeholder in construction industry whether they are in high or low management level.

With the rapid development of construction industry progress, construction safety is paid more attention by more and more people. At present, construction safety has become the main problem which restricted the construction industrys development. It not only reflects construction enterprises management level, but also the economic efficiency of enterprises. Therefore, adopting prevention measures about construction industry is worth researching and discussing. This paper introduces the present situation of safety management in construction sites, then analyses the major safety management problems. Finally, it pertinently advances effective countermeasures on the basis of Safety First, Prevention First, Comprehensive Treatment to achieve the aim at reducing the construction safety accident rate to the greatest extent.
