Real-time location systems (RTLS) applied on construction sites can objectively monitor workers' safety behaviors, as it provides information on how often workers enter danger zones and how they react to danger warnings. These records will demonstrate workers safety attitude and their ability to comply with safety warnings, which are direct reflections of their safety performance. In this study, to explore the relationship between aging and safety performance, a RTLS called Proactive Construction Management System (PCMS) was applied in a field study in Shanghai. The system recorded workers unsafe behaviors (entering pre-defined danger zones) and their reaction to danger warnings. The frequency of entering danger zones and the average response time were chosen as the metrics to assess safety performance for workers in different age groups. Through statistical analysis with the help of IBM SPSS, the results revealed that aging has mildly negative effects on safety performance, as in general older workers entered danger zones more frequently and had longer response time. More specifically, the findings are mostly consistent with previous findings in identifying workers in age group 31-40 have the worst safety performance. But the bad safety performance identified in older workers is more worrisome for the aging construction industry. Despite their high awareness of safety issues on site, older workers still exhibited unsatisfactory safety performance most likely due to their declined physical capabilities. As a result, more attention should be drawn to enhance the safety performance among older workers. In practice, senior workers might be better-off assigned to less dangerous jobs, and special safety warnings and protection gears will be helpful in extending their working life.

With the rapid development of China's construction industry, construction accidents are commonplace. Among them, the human factor in the process of construction safety management is considered the most important influencing factor. As a new generation of Chinese construction workers gradually takes the mainstream, traditional construction site safety management theories do not achieve good results in the application process. Psychological hazards within the organizational structure of construction sites are difficult to detect and, when they occur, can have a significant negative impact on safety performance. The identification and control of psychological hazards within construction sites is of great significance to safety performance. Affective event theory and leader-member exchange theory have been prominent in revealing aspects of workplace communication and behavioral decision making, but their use in the construction industry has been relatively rare. For construction groups, individuals are influenced by the team climate that has a tremendous impact on their behavioral decisions. Analyzing the mutual influence of managers and construction personnel is important to provide safety awareness, reduce unsafe behaviors, and reduce the incidence of safety accidents among construction personnel.

Workplace mistreatment is a burgeoning topic of interest, with the majority of workers having experienced it in some form. This book explores workplace ostracism and its negative effects on employee and organizational outcomes, such as employee attitudes, behaviors, and well-being. This edited volume defines workplace ostracism and examines how to differentiate ostracism from other type of workplace mistreatment, such as workplace incivility and interpersonal conflict. Among the questions it seeks to answer are: 1) what are the individual, relational, and contextual factors that influence employees’ workplace ostracism experiences; and 2) what constitutes ostracism in stigmatized populations, such as international students, immigrant workers, and older workers. Researchers in organizational behavior, I/O psychology, and the sociology of work will find this book to be a valuable resource.
