The respondents were eight (8) contractors and fifty-six (56) field workers from randomly selected contractors with an active contract with the Negros Oriental 1st District Engineering Office. The study employed a descriptive-correlational research design as it assessed the extent of the field workers’ awareness of and compliance with OSH Programs and investigated the relationship between two variables, namely: (a) the extent of the field workers’ awareness of and compliance with OSH Programs and (b) OSH compliance and accident rates on the construction site. The researcher utilized a validated questionnaire and applied the percentage, weighted mean, and Spearman’s Rank Order Correlation as the tools for treating the data. The results revealed that the extent of the respondents’ awareness of and compliance with OSH Programs varied from "high" to "very high" in the following areas: (a) construction safety and health programs for employees, (b) formal site health and safety inspections, (c) factors contributing to health hazards on construction sites, (d) provision of personal protective equipment, and (e) safety measures in the workplace. However, the data were insufficient to conclude a significant relationship between the extent of the workers’ compliance with OSH Programs and the accident rates on the site. Keywords: awareness, compliance, occupational safety and health program (OSHP)

Abstract

The study aimed to determine the awareness and compliance of contractors and field
workers regarding Occupational Safety and Health Programs in the DPWH 1st District
Engineering Office in Negros Oriental. The respondents were eight (8) contractors and
fifty-six (56) field workers from randomly selected contractors with an active contract
with the Negros Oriental 1st District Engineering Office. The study employed a
descriptive-correlational research design as it assessed the extent of the field workers’
awareness of and compliance with OSH Programs and investigated the relationship
between two variables, namely: (a) the extent of the field workers’ awareness of and
compliance with OSH Programs and (b) OSH compliance and accident rates on the
construction site. The researcher utilized a validated questionnaire and applied the
percentage, weighted mean, and Spearman’s Rank Order Correlation as the tools for
treating the data. The results revealed that the extent of the respondents’ awareness of
and compliance with OSH Programs varied from "high" to "very high" in the following
areas: (a) construction safety and health programs for employees, (b) formal site health
and safety inspections, (c) factors contributing to health hazards on construction sites,
(d) provision of personal protective equipment, and (e) safety measures in the
workplace. However, the data were insufficient to conclude a significant relationship
between the extent of the workers’ compliance with OSH Programs and the accident
rates on the site.
Keywords: awareness, compliance, occupational safety and health program (OSHP)
