AB  - This thesis set out to reduce the rate of construction disasters and to create better working
conditions by surveying safety managers and safety patrol managers. In each phase of construction, laborers
are exposed to various specific risk factors on sites. However, trained specialists have a high opportunity to
prevent laborer accidents. Therefore, construction companies hire safety patrol managers through outsourcing
contracts to support safety managers in preventing laborer and construction site accidents. However, the
working conditions of safety patrol managers require improvement as most of them are employed as non-regular
workers and casual worker problems remain to be settled. We should offer some suggestions to tackle these
issues and attempt to improve the conditions within the current system. Despite the many accidents in small
construction companies and on small construction sites caused by the neglect of safety management, clear
safety regulations have not yet been issued. Therefore, the occupational safety and health acts need to be
modified to improve working conditions on small-scale construction sites by hiring trained safety managers.
