This research aims to study the construction workers' performance in rural projects through H&S strategies in the construction industry. lt focuses on construction parties working in active rural sites of Sri Aman, Sarawak. The objective of this research is to study the factors affecting the workers' performance, to assess satisfaction level of H&S culture in construction site between workers performance, and to identify strategies to improve H&S in rural projects. A questionnaire is used to collect a wide range of opinions among Rural Transformation Programme (RTP) construction workers and practitioners.
