If there is an injury ALL 5 factors are involved.

If one of the factors in the sequence leading to an

Are foremen critical for safety?

Its true that no other person on the site has

more responsibilities for safety than the site
foreman.
Similarly no person has more direct influence
over the workers than the site foreman.
Therefore the foreman is the only one who
can, if he chooses to do so, ensure that the

workers do their jobs in a safest and most

efficient manner possible.
