Download or read book Aging and Safety Performance written by Qin Yin and published by . This book was released on 2016 with total page 117 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Real-time location systems (RTLS) applied on construction sites can objectively monitor workers' safety behaviors, as it provides information on how often workers enter danger zones and how they react to danger warnings. These records will demonstrate workers safety attitude and their ability to comply with safety warnings, which are direct reflections of their safety performance. In this study, to explore the relationship between aging and safety performance, a RTLS called Proactive Construction Management System (PCMS) was applied in a field study in Shanghai. The system recorded workers unsafe behaviors (entering pre-defined danger zones) and their reaction to danger warnings. The frequency of entering danger zones and the average response time were chosen as the metrics to assess safety performance for workers in different age groups. Through statistical analysis with the help of IBM SPSS, the results revealed that aging has mildly negative effects on safety performance, as in general older workers entered danger zones more frequently and had longer response time. More specifically, the findings are mostly consistent with previous findings in identifying workers in age group 31-40 have the worst safety performance. But the bad safety performance identified in older workers is more worrisome for the aging construction industry. Despite their high awareness of safety issues on site, older workers still exhibited unsatisfactory safety performance most likely due to their declined physical capabilities. As a result, more attention should be drawn to enhance the safety performance among older workers. In practice, senior workers might be better-off assigned to less dangerous jobs, and special safety warnings and protection gears will be helpful in extending their working life.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With the rapid development of China's construction industry, construction accidents are commonplace. Among them, the human factor in the process of construction safety management is considered the most important influencing factor. As a new generation of Chinese construction workers gradually takes the mainstream, traditional construction site safety management theories do not achieve good results in the application process. Psychological hazards within the organizational structure of construction sites are difficult to detect and, when they occur, can have a significant negative impact on safety performance. The identification and control of psychological hazards within construction sites is of great significance to safety performance. Affective event theory and leader-member exchange theory have been prominent in revealing aspects of workplace communication and behavioral decision making, but their use in the construction industry has been relatively rare. For construction groups, individuals are influenced by the team climate that has a tremendous impact on their behavioral decisions. Analyzing the mutual influence of managers and construction personnel is important to provide safety awareness, reduce unsafe behaviors, and reduce the incidence of safety accidents among construction personnel.

Download or read book Smart Service Systems, Operations Management, and Analytics written by Hui Yang and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2019-11-25 with total page 394 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This volume offers state-of-the-art research in service science and its related research, education and practice areas. It showcases recent developments in smart service systems, operations management and analytics and their impact in complex service systems. The papers included in this volume highlight emerging technology and applications in fields including healthcare, energy, finance, information technology, transportation, sports, logistics, and public services. Regardless of size and service, a service organization is a service system. Because of the socio-technical nature of a service system, a systems approach must be adopted to design, develop, and deliver services, aimed at meeting end users‘ both utilitarian and socio-psychological needs. Effective understanding of service and service systems often requires combining multiple methods to consider how interactions of people, technology, organizations, and information create value under various conditions. The papers in this volume present methods to approach such technical challenges in service science and are based on top papers from the 2019 INFORMS International Conference on Service Science.

Book excerpt: Workplace mistreatment is a burgeoning topic of interest, with the majority of workers having experienced it in some form. This book explores workplace ostracism and its negative effects on employee and organizational outcomes, such as employee attitudes, behaviors, and well-being. This edited volume defines workplace ostracism and examines how to differentiate ostracism from other type of workplace mistreatment, such as workplace incivility and interpersonal conflict. Among the questions it seeks to answer are: 1) what are the individual, relational, and contextual factors that influence employees’ workplace ostracism experiences; and 2) what constitutes ostracism in stigmatized populations, such as international students, immigrant workers, and older workers. Researchers in organizational behavior, I/O psychology, and the sociology of work will find this book to be a valuable resource.

This book was released on 2014 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The U.S. construction industry continues to rank as one of the most dangerous work environments when compared to other industrial sectors. Construction companies are required to record and report lagging safety leading indicators including fatalities, injuries, and illnesses. Safety leading indicators provide an opportunity to identify construction site hazards and hazardous worker behavior before a fatality, injury, or illness occurs. Further improvements are also necessary for construction safety through the use of technology. The application of advanced or emerging technologies can have a significant role in enhancing construction worker safety performance. This research seeks to report and analyze safety leading indicators, specifically near misses. Furthermore, technologies capable of providing alerts in real-time to construction equipment operators and ground workers during hazardous proximity situations are reviewed. A testing method for proximity detection and alert devices for the construction environment is presented. Operator visibility, including impacts of design components, is also measured and analyzed. One major contribution of this research is the creation of a near miss reporting program ready for implementation for construction companies. Other research contributions include understanding of impacts of design on operator visibility, scientific evaluation data of proximity sensing technology, and a test method for proximity detection and alert system deployed in the construction environment. Research findings can be disseminated for improved construction worker safety education and training.
