                    60     Abstract :    Construction Industry is highly prone to hazards related to site activities and
                           construction projects engage large number of contract workers. Contract workers come from
                           varied trades especially from rural areas and agricultural background and do not have proper
                           training in construction safety. During execution at site, these workers are exposed to various
                           risks involved in construction works and other occupational diseases and health hazards which
                           cause injuries and illnesses. As a result, the construction projects get delayed due to loss of
                           working hours and other legal hassles. Therefore, it is essential for any construction project to
                           have certain safety guidelines for site activities and to create awareness among the workers,
                           site supervisor and engineers. The aim of the Construction Safety Manual is to enable to maintain
                           safe working condition at all construction sites under Architecture and Civil Engineering Division,
                           Bhabha Atomic Research Centre. This manual covers safety policy, principles and objectives
