The purpose of the study is to investigate how safety representatives are working in small construction enterprises and what it is that controls the preventive health and safety work. Methodology
Based on the study purpose, an open approach has been used where the collected data is the result of literary studies, quantitative survey and interviews. Conclusions
Safety representatives have an important role in small enterprises. Since the employer itself often does not have the necessary resources, the representative gets a greater role. A safety representative shall represent its colleagues in questions about the work environment witch requires a commitment from both the elected and its colleagues. Training, time and expertise in health and safety are key factors to be able to influence and interact with the employer. Some safety representatives are lacking in basic knowledge and routines and unionized representatives generally have basic training. The joint training program by the party organizations is addressing the issues that are important to the industry. Risk awareness is key to a good preventive work and it is important that the safety representative is involved in the procurement of occupational health and safety. Small enterprises represent a large part of the construction industry. Authorities and external actors should adapt their work methods and communication channels to reach out to the group. Regional safety representatives should not be seen as an alternative, but rather as a complement. Keyword
