Abstract

Analysis and Risk Assessment for Occupational Safety, on construction industry, is a complex process, which implies the consideration and analysis of many parameters, technical, organizational and psychosocial wich are difficult to quantify. The methods used are crude and based on uncertain, fuzzy, imprecise and/or incomplete information. The aim of this study is to identify the main parameters and the mathematical relationships to assess the risks and organize them in a hierarchy.
