a r t i c l e i n f o A planning methodology is introduced to ensure that workers on construction sites remain at a safe distance from each other. The methodology is based on the assumption that hazardous conditions, which occur on sites due to the proximity of different workers, depend on the interaction between both reinforcing and counteracting characteristics of the workers. The methodology...

Over 2000 electrocution deaths were identified among U.S. construction workers from 1980 to 1991, with the highest mean annual crude mortality rate (2.5 per 100,000 people), and second highest mean age-adjusted rate (2.7 per 100,000 people) of all industries. Although the crude fatality rates showed a downward trend, construction workers are still about four times more likely to be electrocuted...
