{"product_id":"construction-health-and-safety-in-patrick-manu-9781032177410","title":"Construction Health and Safety in Developing Countries","description":"\u003cp\u003eThe global construction sector is infamous for high levels of injuries, accidents and fatalities, and poor health and well-being of its workforce. While this record appears in both developed and developing countries, the situation is worse in developing countries, where major spending on infrastructure development is expected. There is an urgent need to improve construction health and safety (H\u0026amp;S) in developing countries. The improvement calls for the development of context-specific solutions underpinned by research into challenges and related solutions. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThis edited volume advances the current understanding of construction H\u0026amp;S in developing countries by revealing context-specific issues and challenges that have hitherto not been well explored in the literature, and applying emergent H\u0026amp;S management approaches and practices in developing countries. Coverage includes countries from the regions of sub-Saharan Africa, Latin America, Asia and Europe. This book, which is the first compendium of research into construction H\u0026amp;S issues in developing countries, adds considerable insight into the field and presents innovative solutions to help address poor H\u0026amp;S in construction in developing nations. It is a must read for all construction professionals, researchers and practitioners interested in construction and occupational H\u0026amp;S, safety management, engineering management and development studies. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Patrick Manu\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1032177411\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781032177410\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Routledge\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/30\/2021\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 348\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.07lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.21h x 6.14w x 0.72d","brand":"Patrick Manu","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48443906556159,"sku":"9781032177410","price":65.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_389f40b4-8728-4673-b3a8-bfb3dd084ddc.jpg?v=1777208679","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/construction-health-and-safety-in-patrick-manu-9781032177410","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
