Occupational safety and health (OSH) in construction is a major concern as construction continues to be very hazardous [1]. According to Shin et al. [2], about 88% of all industrial accidents are caused by unsafe worker behaviours with the remaining 12% caused by the physical environment and other restrictions. In recognition of the contribution of worker behaviour/acts to unwanted OSH outcomes, there has been a growing emphasis on behaviouralbased safety (BBS) programmes. BBS programmes are based on the principle of identifying and promoting safe behaviour and attitudes among individual workers [3]. Consequently, an understanding of the potent antecedents of OSH behaviour is important. However, BBS interventions have taken limited cognisance of intrinsic human factors that could affect behaviour such as human values [4]. Drawing on studies in psychology that have shown significant relationships between human values and behaviours [5], Manu et al. [4] argued for studies into the role of human values in BBS. In line with this, this study particularly examined the relationship between workers personal values and occupational safety and health motivation (OSHM) in construction. The next section reviews literature on human values and OSHM towards the development of a research framework. Subsequently the research methodology applied in the study is outlined. The ensuing research findings, their discussion and concluding remarks are then presented.
