ABSTRACT

The influence (probability) and impact of health and safety (H&S) compliance on small to medium-sized construction companies were determined by soliciting experts' views through a Delphi study. In order to identify the main and sub-attributes that determine the health and safety compliance of the particular construction companies in the Ghanaian construction industry, three rounds of the Delphi process were conducted to seek experts' views on health and safety compliance issues. This chapter provides a description of the composition of the panel of experts and a general background to the Delphi study. It presents the summary of the findings based on the objectives of the Delphi study. The result of the Delphi study assisted in the determination of key factors and constructs that are of critical significance in determining H&S compliance in the construction industry and were achieved through the results obtained from the Delphi study.
