Photo by Hilina Abebe Shaky wooden scaffolds and ladders, unsafe excavations, daily laborers working under precarious conditions, this is construction in Ethiopia where health and safety takes the back seat. The construction industry employs a large number of a nation’s workforce and is a major driver of the economy through the contribution of a large amount to the GDP.

The same industry is identified as occupational safety and health hazard since it involves several occupational risk and dangers that are specific to the sector. Construction workers are prone to accidents running from a minor cut to fatal injuries and these risks are magnified in the Ethiopian context.

With the advent of the construction boom of Ethiopia, it is not uncommon to see the majority of construction activities being carried out by unskilled labor force at a cheap daily payment. Among other things, injuries and accidents are very high due to lack of sufficient health and safety training, inadequate provision of safety equipment and lack of proper enforcement of minimum standards by the concerned authority, if at all. In the following sections, I will try to briefly highlight the relevant international and national legal and institutional frameworks relevant to OSH, especially those that have a direct implication to the construction industry. By doing this, an attempt will be made to check whether or not there are enough legal and institutional frameworks to protect the right and interest of the construction industry labor force. OHS has been one of the major concerns for the International Labor Organization (ILO).
