Description

Risk identification and mitigation are what define the role of a construction manager. Without correctly identifying and mitigating risks, you will have an increased chance of your project running behind schedule and/or over budget. Michigan Safety Courses provide the essential knowledge to address these challenges. That’s why the identification and mitigation of potential hazards, reinforced through Michigan Safety Courses, are at the very core of what we do as construction managers.

Yes! When you sign up for the course, you will be able to access, download, and print the sustainable practices document for future reference.

What are some significant risks in construction?

• Safety – Implementing a safety policy is the first step in building a safety culture on your project. Without a safety culture in place, your risk for safety injuries and violations dramatically increases.

• Constructability – Trees, powerlines, means & methods, underground utilities, ground water, and environmental constraints are all examples of factors that can lead to constructability issues.

• Poor contract administration – Poorly written contracts and administration can lead to quality, scope, safety, schedule, and/or budgetary issues on the project.

• Unforeseen site conditions – Unknown areas at, overhead, or underneath the construction site can pose a constructability or safety risk.

What is a risk register?
A risk register defines the risks associated with a particular construction activity. These are sometimes referred to as Job Safety Analysis (JSA) and Activity Hazard Analysis (AHA). The risk register breaks the work for the activity into steps (i.e., Earth-Formed Footers → Dig trench → Install Rebar → Place Concrete → Cure). All of the steps have some level of risk. The risk register identifies the risks associated with each activity and outlines the steps taken to mitigate them. This should be discussed with the construction team before commencing this activity.

Is it possible to mitigate all risks in a construction project?
Although the concept seems possible, you will still be unable to eliminate all risks associated with the construction project. Owners hire contractors not only for their expertise to build, but also for the fact that they take on the risk associated with the project. The project’s profitability to the contractor hinges on their ability to mitigate risks. Without these processes, most construction projects will fail to meet the contractor’s goals.
