Abstract

The chapter examines the growing importance of psychosocial risks in the construction sector, particularly in Spain. It delves into the high rates of accidents and substance use, the unique challenges faced by the sector due to its mobile workplaces, and the need for better prevention strategies. The study is based on surveys and data from the ESENER reports, offering a detailed look at the current state of psychosocial risks and their impact on construction workers. The chapter also highlights the need for improved employee participation and awareness programs to tackle these issues effectively.
