Risk-based management of occupational safety and health in the construction industry - Part 2: Quantitative model

This companion paper is presented in two parts. The present document refers to Part 2 and makes use of the background knowledge and existing initiatives reviewed in Part 1 to propose and detail the Occupational Safety and Health Potential Risk Model (OSH-PRM). The proposed model was conceived to assist in conducting cost-benefit analysis for occupational safety and health risk management. The OSH-PRM enables an enhanced management of the resources available to improve safety and health conditions in the various activities and for different groups of workers involved in the execution stage of a construction project.
