Abstract -Considerable attention has been targeted on
together to show concern for the physical and mental wellbeing of the individual at the place of work. Health and safety knowledge and compliance is most important for workers, it is also positive effect in project performance. There are two management system in construction industry ILO and OSH. Most of the work executed by human being which has led to increased quantity of injuries and death on construction areas. Although national statistics show that little decreased injuries in the construction area, but then it is still very high as compared to the developed countries' standards. So, in construction place there is adequate health and safety knowledge and compliance with health and safety rules among construction workers will translate to project performance. The major purpose of this research is to show the level of health and safety knowledge, level of health and safety on construction sites and impact of health and safety knowledge and compliance on project performance, to identify construction worker positive safety attitude and behaviors and to review literature on health and safety issue of building construction worker so as to get a deeper understanding of their health and safety related issues in the construction industry.

This paper is consolidated into five classes for clarity. The introduction tells about the study as the purpose and purpose of the study. Literature reviews provided the results of the prevailing studies, while taking a specific reference to construction health and safety knowledge, compliance, rules and management system. The methods applied in the study is presented in the method section, while the results of the study are provided and discussed in the next section. Finally, the finding section includes the general results and the success of the study, including recommendations.
health and safety knowledge its compliance on construction site in Gwalior city, India. It is generally poor in India. The main purpose of the research is find out level of health and safety knowledge, compliance on site and how much impact of both on project performance on construction site. Information was administered from construction sites by questionnaires survey and personal interview. The result was highlight on building construction technical person and building construction labour health and safety knowledge, compliance and project performance. The thesis identifies Technical person health and safety knowledge is high, health and safety compliance is moderate and project performance is high. And construction labour health and safety knowledge is moderate, health and safety compliance is low and project performance is moderate. This study concludes that only technical person and only construction labour health and safety knowledge and compliance cannot improve project performance, it is possible that both technical person and construction labour should have health and safety knowledge and compliance, and strictly follow the health and safety program can improve project performance.
1.INTRODUCTION Health and safety is clearly connected with or related to all branches of industry; it is most important for the construction industry. In recent time, India is the one of the most developing country. It has always been a critical issue as it is carefully thought about/believed as among the most dangerous areas when it comes to occupational sudden unplanned bad events/crashes. Construction sector is linked with the dangers/risks related to the site activities. The labors and workers come from different areas and background. These workers are exposed to risks, occupational sicknesses and health dangers/risks which cause illness and injuries. This leads to loss of time and legal difficulties. Therefore, it is awfully significant for any construction site to have certain health and safety knowledge for site activities and to create awareness among the workers. Health and safety two words are usually used
