초록

Traditional safety training methods in construction, such as toolbox meetings and classroom sessions, fall short of addressing the challenges faced by workers, especially migrant workers hindered by barriers. The compliance-driven nature of safety management practices is identified as a core issue, often disconnected from the realities of the jobsite. To tackle these limitations, we propose iSAFE-Education, an approach harnessing Industry 4.0 technologies. By integrating Virtual Reality (VR) and Metaverse environments into safety training, this platform immerses workers in authentic jobsite contexts using 360-degree panorama images. Our method provides virtual walkthroughs, enabling workers to familiarize themselves with site-specific features and safety protocols. Additionally, iSAFE-Education facilitates site assessment and safety information sharing among project participants within the immersive jobsite environment. This paper highlights the importance of hazard information delivery and positions this solution as an answer for enhancing jobsite safety in contemporary construction settings.
