Construction workers's productivity as an indicator to the successful project performance

Labor productivity is an important measurement technique for measuring project performance in the construction sector. The productivity on the job site determines how well a project performs. The performance of the construction sector will be determined by how it compares to other industries. Construction sectors are considered labor-intensive since they rely largely on the skills of their personnel. As a result, contractors must work as efficiently as possible in order to optimize the impact to the project performance. Contractors have been found on construction sites in recent years disregarding worker productivity and its influence on overall production. This study was conducted to determine the essential approaches for increasing construction employees' productivity and, as a result, the project performance. The aim of this research is to identify the elements that influence construction worker productivity, quantify the effects of construction worker productivity on project performance, and propose the best strategies for increasing construction worker productivity in a construction project. A set of questionnaires was given to 367 contractors, primarily in Perak, who are classified as Construction Industry Development Board members (CIDB).
