“…Other characteristics inherent to the construction sector further corroborate its uniqueness and risk: it has an itinerant in nature, it encourages workers to adopt less healthy lifestyles [34]; its workers lack proper qualifications [41,61] and are susceptible to drinking alcohol and smoking [32,33]; it is cyclical due to its dependence on economic factors [62]; it is male-dominated and characterized by predominantly male stigmas and cultures [31,36]; and it has a high rate of absenteeism and turnover [37,38]; on the other hand, it has a low productivity index [39][40][41] as well as organizational commitment [42].…”

“…It exhibits high rates of work-related illnesses and has detrimental impacts on the mental well-being of its own workers [29]. Characteristics such as long working hours, physical and job insecurity, and conflicts between work and family [30,31], in addition to workers' lack of qualifications and less healthy lifestyles, such as the use of alcohol and smoking [32,33], due to the itinerant nature of the sector [34], contribute to making construction one of the most stressful occupations [35]. Other challenges include the predominance of male cultural stigmas [31,36], high rates of absenteeism and turnover [37,38], low productivity [39][40][41], and the organizational commitment of workers [42].…”

Despite increased safety investments in the civil construction sector, high accident rates persist, often due to workers’ intentional unsafe behaviors influenced by poorly understood psychological factors. This study utilized validated interpretative structural modeling (VISM), an innovative technique, to investigate factors impacting the well-being and risk perception of construction workers in the Brazilian Amazon. The VISM model was developed through five steps: (1) identification of indicators; (2) definition of constructs; (3) identification of relationships between constructs; (4) validation of these relationships; and (5) creation of the model. The results underscore the effectiveness of VISM in crafting complex models with robust statistical validity, even in studies with sample limitations and intricate or circular relationships among constructs. The research identified various factors in this phenomenon, such as the importance given by management to workplace safety, job dissatisfaction, work-related stress, turnover intention, work–family balance, alcohol and cigarette use, physical health, perception of accident risks at work, and education and training in workplace safety. Another significant contribution lies in the model’s ability to discern both direct and indirect relationships among these well-being factors. This insight enables the formulation of strategies to enhance worker well-being and reduce workplace accidents, particularly those stemming from intentional unsafe behaviors.
