Contractor Health and Safety Compliance for Small to Medium-Sized Construction Companies

Autor Zakari Mustapha, Clinton Aigbavboa, Wellington Thwala
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 24 oct 2017
This book explores the formation of small and medium-sized construction company's (SME) compliance with health and safety issues in developing countries. Little has been written about the formation of SME contractors' health and safety compliance for developing countries, especially, in the sub-sahara regions where construction and infrastructure development activities have significantly increased in order to serve the development mandate of those countries. Thus, this book will provides insight into construction safety for SMEs, as well as health and safety compliance, and its policy implementation trends and development.
