Abstract
The construction industry has several issues associated with accident incidence prevention and mitigating occupational risks. Traditional safety methods are exhausted in many cases as they may not consider the changing and complex factors in construction environments. This research wants to explore the impact of Virtual Reality (VR)and Environmental Graphics Light Overlay (EGLO) systems on safety in the construction sector. The study looks at the efficiency, user experience, and side effects of VR and EGLO compared to safety training programs. It also evaluates the performance of VR and EGLO safety training programs in terms of accident reduction rates post-implementation in the construction sector as well as the cost considerations when using these training programs. The study proposes an outline for the use of VR and EGLO during safety training programs in the construction industry based on the results of the study. The study is designed to equip the readers with practical recommendations to improve safety procedures and eliminate risks during construction.
