| Abstract |
Generally, an objective of the reduction of working time is to increase labor productivity. The labor productivity of the manufacturing industry is actually increased after application of the reduction of working time. However, the labor productivity of the construction industry is hard to be increased after application of the reduction of working time due to characteristics of the construction industry. Therefore, influence of the reduction of working time in the construction projects should be analyzed carefully in advance of application of the reduction of working time to the construction industry. This study proposes a prediction model for working patterns of construction labors in construction sites, measures annual actual working time of construction labors based on the model, and analyzes influence of the reduction of working time in construction sites. |
