| Summary: | The issue of compliance with the use of Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) by
construction site workers is a significant concern in the construction industry. Personal
Protective Equipment (PPE) is consequently crucial to the safety of construction site
employees. Several deadly incidents have been documented in the construction sector,
making it one of the most hazardous industries to work in. The purpose of this research is to
investigate the compliance and the awareness with the use of PPE at construction site, thus
pose solutions in the strategy of improving the PPE adherence towards the safety standards.
The methodological process starts with data gathering, by distributing questionnaires to
construction site workers that works under CIDB registered contractor in Selangor, Malaysia.

mean scores indicate that construction workers in Selangor exhibit a high level of compliance
with Personal Protective Equipment (PPE) and demonstrate strong awareness regarding its
usage. Additionally, the strategies implemented to promote PPE compliance have received
positive feedback from the workers as it carries many advantages. |
