Description
1. Introduction Construction works are specific and present one of the most dangerous business fields. The reasons why occupational accidents in the construction field occur have a number of various causes (Sukys 2004; Liaudanskiene et al. 2010; Hola 2007). Significant reasons directly influencing accidents at work in the construction sector include a shortage of knowledge and training, a lack of supervision, awareness about the safe implementation of assigned work, i.e. negligence, apathy and total carelessness (Findley et al. 2004; Duijm et al. 2008). This is called unsafe behaviour and is suppose to be one of the fundamental factors influencing accidents at work, which shows a poor safety culture in a company (Macedo and Silva 2005; Behm 2005; Carter and Smith 2006; Hola 2006a, 2006b, 2010).
