500 _a The construction industry plays a vital role in driving economic growth worldwide. With its laber-intensive nature, construction projects offer employment opportunities for indivishaals with various skill levels, ranging from skilled to semi-skilled and unskilled workers. However, construction work is often associated with risks, as it experiences high rates of occupational accidents and health issues among its workforce. Frequent occupational accidents and injury in the construction industry can be attributed to various factors This study aims to assess the occupational safety and health conditions of construction companies in Nueva Vizcaya. The study seeks to understand the demographic profile of the respondents, the employer's compliance with safety and health policies, identified strategies or practices to reduce workplace hazards, and the factors contributing to risks faced by the workers Most companies in Nueva Vizcaya have formal health and safety programs and written safety and health policies. The majority of respondents also reported having internal safety and health departments and engaging in formal site health and safety inspections. However, the survey highlighted some areas for improvement, such as the need for more frequent health and safety training and incentives for workers The factors identified as affecting safety and health performance included the absence of safety and health departments, safety and health policies, and adequate training Lack of site safety and health inspections and incentives for employees were also mentioned as contributing factors. These findings emphasize the importance of addressing these factors to enhance safety and health of workers in the construction industry.
