Identification of Hazards and Risk Assessment in Construction Site

Abstract

The goals of this study were to identify hazards associated with construction sites and their consequences on workers and the environment, as well as to assess the risk of hazard that happens on a construction site. The assessment was conducted at two construction sites: Site A in Ijaw Quarters, Warri, and Site B near Efeturi Farms in Samagidi. The data was analyzed and displayed as tables and bar charts. The collected results are classed as PA, PB, PC, and PD, which include data for XA, XB, and XC. According to the results, XA denoted for PA shows 51 totals, XB denoted for PA shows 66, and XC denoted for PA shows 224 totals. For PB, XA denoted for PB shows 43, XB denoted for PB shows 54, and XC denoted for PB shows 164. For PC, XA denoted for PC shows 51, XB denoted for PC shows 66, and XC denoted for PC shows 224. For PD, XA marked for PB shows 43 totals, XB denoted for PD shows 54, and XC denoted for PD shows 164 totals. Furthermore, each site was found to have 15 hazards as measured by risks observed and seen, with Site A having 1 risk as Low colour indicated as green, 5 risks as Medium colour indicated as yellow, and 9 risks as High colour indicated as red, and Site B having 3 risks as Low colour indicated as green, 7 risks as Medium colour indicated as yellow, and 5 risks as High colour indicated as red.
