Lee (1991 cited in Tam & Fung, 1998) stated that the reduction of accident rates can be achieved through the use of safety induction. In the construction industry, safe working conditions are essential. He pointed out that it is often taken for granted that new workers have received prior safety training from previous employers. That assumption could be disastrous for both the company and new workers because the nature of their current work (e.g. layout, equipment) may be totally different from their previous projects.
