Construction Workers Injury Risk Assessment in Relation to their Experience and Age

Taking into consideration the significant impact of working force on the quality of realization of a construction process from the aspect of safety at work, it is essential to be familiar with the features of construction workers and identify their risk groups. Within the research, the analysis was carried out examining the influence of experience of workers in construction jobs at which they suffered an injury, along with the analysis of the influence of workers’ age on the occurrence of injuries. The type of works has an impact on the occurrence an injury only in the case when the works are realized by workers with less than 4 years of experience. It was determined that those types of works which require a certain level of professional training account for a smaller number of injuries compared with those types of work where “physical” work is dominant.
