| dc.description.abstract | The research findings provide comprehensive insights into the impact of site instructions on the Ndirindiri Market Project in Obongi District, shedding light on opportunities to enhance construction management in Local Government projects. The study aimed to assess the clarity and understanding of instructions, analyze the timeliness and effectiveness of communication, and evaluate safety measures and feedback mechanisms. A significant portion of respondents expressed uncertainty or dissatisfaction with the clarity of the provided instructions. While some lacked confidence in their ability to understand and apply the instructions, a substantial proportion felt confident. There were varying levels of adherence to the given instructions and safety protocols, with a
notable percentage expressing uncertainty or lack of consistent adherence. Additionally, respondents showed varying levels of ease in following the instructions and safety guidelines. The survey results indicate a moderate to high level of agreement among respondents regarding the clarity and understanding of instructions, as well as the timeliness and communication of instructions in the workplace. While there is generally good compliance with safety instructions and regulations in a construction environment, there are opportunities to improve feedback mechanisms. The survey results show a notable level of agreement among respondents regarding safety compliance and feedback, as supported by the Kendall's coefficient of concordance of 0.707.
The recommendations include conducting a thorough review of instructions, providing opportunities for open communication, implementing regular performance evaluations, gathering feedback from employees, standardizing procedures for issuing instructions, providing training to supervisors on effective communication techniques, establishing a feedback mechanism for
employees, encouraging regular communication between supervisors and employees, implementing a robust feedback mechanism for safety instructions, developing a culture that values reporting of errors, providing regular training on safety protocols, and acting on the feedback received to demonstrate continuous improvement in safety practices. | en_US |
