Abstract Construction safety remains a critical concern due to the hazardous nature of construction activities that expose workers to physical, mechanical, and environmental risks. This study developed a management-oriented Hazard Identification and Risk Assessment Control (HIRAC) framework for construction projects at the University of Perpetual Help System Laguna by assessing workers’ hazard awareness, identifying common workplace accidents and injuries, evaluating the existing safety culture, and determining the acceptability of a proposed HIRAC Training and Awareness Program. A descriptive quantitative research design was employed, with data collected from construction workers through structured survey questionnaires. Weighted mean and standard deviation were used to analyze the data. Findings revealed that workers demonstrated a high level of hazard awareness, particularly regarding physical injuries and exposure to harmful substances. However, construction activities continued to present significant risks, including slips, trips, falls, and machinery-related accidents affecting the upper and lower extremities. Most incidents were classified as minor to moderate. The institution also exhibited a very high level of safety culture through effective implementation of safety policies and compliance measures, although hazard communication required improvement. Furthermore, the proposed HIRAC Training and Awareness Program received very high acceptability among respondents. The study recommends implementing the framework to strengthen safety practices, reduce workplace risks, and promote a proactive and sustainable construction safety environment.
