Assessment of Safety, Health and Environmental (SHE) Practices in High-Rise Commercial Building Construction - A Case Study of Hinduja Housing Finance Corporate Office Project
Abstract: This paper examines how Safety, Health and Environment (SHE) practices are applied in a live high-rise commercial construction project at the Hinduja Housing Finance Corporate Office under the supervision of Qualtech Engineers Pvt. Ltd. The work brings together site inspections, safety audits, document reviews, photographs and discussions with project staff to understand how safety, worker health and environmental protection are managed during construction. Attention is given to hazard control, use of personal protective equipment, labour welfare, emergency preparedness, statutory compliance and environmental measures such as dust control, waste management and water conservation. The assessment also compares existing practices with Indian regulations and relevant international standards to identify strengths as well as areas that require further improvement. Based on the observations, an integrated SHE framework is proposed to support safer construction activities, better work quality, higher productivity and responsible environmental performance. The paper also highlights the need for stronger safety education, wider use of digital technologies and closer collaboration between industry and academic institutions to build a more capable and sustainable construction sector in India.
