-This book is designed to introduce its readers to the management of construction health and safety at an elementary and foundational level.

-Other texts attempt a single volume to address the entire scope of the construction health and safety management space.

-The book draws on the hands-on industry experience of the author as well as the key findings of completed relevant research projects.

-This experience is complemented by extracting from the existing body of knowledge on construction health and safety. The book does not claim to the construction health and safety professional space and as such will contribute to how they interact with the industry.

-It will provide the knowledge base underpinned by theories, methodologies, and principles essential for the effective management of construction health and safety on construction projects both in the private and public sectors. If the principles espoused in this text are implemented, construction health and safety will be better managed.
