The Accident Rate in the Construction Sector: A Work Proposal for Its Reduction through the Standardization of Safe Work Processes

The statistics on work-related accidents published by the responsible organizations reveal that the average rate of work accidents within the construction sector is more than double that in other industrial sectors. This serious problem has been analyzed by numerous international organizations and i...
