Abstract

Occupational accidents are wasteful and inefficient in the construction process, and lean construction is a promising concept that has been extensively discussed in the construction industry to enhance safety. The emergence of lean construction is a positive approach that can establish best practices and make the construction sector more profitable whilst delivering the most extreme value. The application of the lean construction concept in the industry is still considered new and fresh, and its application by the construction firms in the country is highly scarce. Therefore, this research aimed to ascertain the lean construction concepts, specifically to improve safety and their implementation in construction projects. Survey questionnaires were given to construction professionals to gauge their awareness and application of lean construction concepts to improve safety in construction projects.
