Chapter 1 Outline of Study
1.1 Background and Objective
(1) Background
This review was initiated based on the recommendation made by the committee deployed by Ministry of
Foreign Affairs, Japan, in order to discuss the measures to prevent recurrence of the similar accident to that of
Can Tho Bridge in Vietnam in September 2007. In July 2008, the committee recommended JICA to carry out
an interim review of Special ODA Loan projects or Special Term for Economic Partnership (STEP) projects
which include large scale and technically complex civil works. Eleven projects were reviewed up to 2014,
which are located in Indonesia, Vietnam, Turkey, Uzbekistan, Philippine, Malaysia and Sri Lanka.
The review in 2015 is to be done for the two STEP projects under construction in India and Kenya. For those
projects, accident (including near miss) analysis is to be done from various angles including not only
engineering/technical aspects but also soft aspects such as safety control and occupational health. Furthermore,
the effects of the accident preventive measures implemented on site will be verified, issues/concerns to be
tackled to ensure prevention of future accidents will be confirmed, and finally, effective/efficient safety
measures and/or improvements will be recommended. Those achievements will be fed back to the
stakeholders to promote further efforts to prevent/mitigate occupational accidents and third party accidents to
contribute to prevention of construction accident in Japanese ODA projects.
(2) Objective
The following tasks will be implemented to the on-going STEP project:
To collect the latest information on the laws, standards, etc. of the recipient countries safety control in
Yen-loan projects and occupational safety and health.
To conduct accident analysis on the accidents occurred in the projects from various angles, and to
confirm the status of implementation of safety control and compliance including verification of effects of
accident preventive measures taken.
To work out proposals for improvements, and to feed back the study results to the stakeholders to
promote further efforts to prevent/mitigate occupational accidents and third party accidents to contribute
to prevention of construction accident.
To derive recommendations and lessons toward resolution of problems/issues which are common in other
similar projects to contribute to prevention of construction accident in Japanese ODA projects.

Chapter 2 Current Situation of Construction Safety in Kenya
2.1 Kenya Construction Industry - Outline
(1) Economic overview
With a land area 1.5 times larger than Japan’s and a population of about 44 million, Kenya is located a
strategic geographic position in East Africa as its key gateway for maritime and air trade. With a real GNI
per capita of US$1,016 (World Bank, 2013), the highest among the East African Cooperation (EAC)1
countries, Kenya occupies a leading role in the region.
In June 2008, the government announced Kenya Vision 2030, a long-term strategic development plan for
horizon 2030 and that, under this plan, the country will:
1) Achieve an average annual economic growth rate of 10% or more by 2030;
2) Build up an equitable society and clean and safe environment; and
3) Sustain a democratic political system;
The plan targets to make Kenya a middle-income country (with a per-capita GNI of US$1,916 or more) by
2030. In particular, in the development of infrastructure, the plan set up high targets in all kinds of fields
including power generation, seaports, airports, roads, railways, and oil pipelines. According to the World
Bank, however, the source of funds for these infrastructure development plans remains uncertain, because
they are estimated to require 320 billion Kenyan shillings every year, and they have found money for less
than half.
(2) Fields in which the Kenyan government wishes foreign investment
The website of Kenyan Embassy in Tokyo provides the following information as fields in which the Kenyan
government wishes foreign investment:
・Agricultural production
Major fields for improvement include irrigation, quality control of agricultural products, efficient
use of seeds and pesticides, and agricultural technologies.
・Infrastructure and public services
Development of water works, hygiene, power generation, projects for road, bridges, etc. including
communication networks.
・Housing
A nationwide, comprehensive housing reform plan plans to construct 150,000 houses every year
and expects further private investment.
・Telecommunications and other knowledge-intensive industries
To develop environment for a network of self-reliant talents to keep abreast of the progress of the
age, investment in this field is necessary.
・Prospection of natural, oil, and mineral resources
Important factors for the development of the country.

Construction is one of the booming segments. There is demand for foreign know-how, expertise and
technologies, and funds. Projects recently attracting the attention of the Kenyan government include:
Construction and repair of roads, development of railways connecting to South Sudan, repair of airports,
development of a second ports in Lamu, construction of oil pipelines between Kenya and Uganda, and
construction of solar and wind power generation plants.
(3) Yen-loan projects to Kenya from the Japanese government
Kenya is the largest recipient in Sub-Saharan Africa of Japanese ODA amounting to a total of more than 300
billion yen. The following is the overview of the largest (10 billion yen or more) of the projects which are
currently under way or which, having completed the exchange of note, are awaiting the kickoff:
(i) Olkaria-Lessos-Kisumu Transmission Lines Project
Loan amount: 12.410 billion yen; General Untied. Date of Loan Agreement: December, 2010
[Purpose and description]
Kenya suffers a serious lack of electric power and relies on unstable hydroelectric power generation for
a large part of its power needs. It is urgent to develop and expand electric power supply facilities. In
this assistance project, Japan constructs power lines connecting Olkaria, Rift Valley Province, where
geothermal power plants are in operation, and Kisumu, Nyanza Province, and expands transformer
substation networks, thereby achieving stable electric power supply to Western Kenya that is expected
to face tight power supply demand in the years to come. The power lines to be newly constructed,
which will send power at higher voltages than before, are expected to help reduce power transmission
loss and promote the use of clean energy.
(ii) Mwea Area Irrigation Development Project
Loan amount: 13.178 billion yen; General Untied.
Date of Loan Agreement: August, 2010
[Purpose and description]
Mwea irrigation project area, Central Province, accounts for more than 50 % of rice production in
Kenya. Japan develops irrigation facilities to stably supply water necessary to agriculture, while
enhancing the management and maintenance abilities of key facilities. The project is expected to allow
double-crop farming of rice and garden products and aims to increase crop acreage from 7,860 to
16,920 ha, and improve the productivity of rice farming, thereby helping farmers in the area to improve
their living and the country to improve its food security.
(iii) Mombasa Port Area Road Development Project
Loan amount: 27.691 billion yen; General Untied. Date of Loan Agreement: June, 2012
[Purpose and description]
The project consists in constructing, around Mombasa port, the largest logistic hub of East Africa, road
connecting the new container terminal and the northern corridor as well as roads leading to the south
coast of the Mombasa Bay and thus improve the physical distribution of goods and help the economic
and social development not only of Kenya but also of the whole East African region including
neighboring countries.

・ Mombasa Southern Bypass: 19. 8 km
Miritini: Connection to A109; Kibundani: connection to A14
・ Kipevu Link Road: 5.7 km
New Container Terminal: Mwache: Connection to the above roads
(iv) Mombasa Port Development Project Phase 2
Loan amount: 32.116 billion yen; STEP Date of Loan Agreement: March, 2015
[Purpose and description]
To meet increase in goods handled by Mombasa port, the largest physical distribution hub in East
Africa, the project aims to further extend the container terminal currently under construction and
improve its handling machines. In 2016, demand for handling (1.32 million TEU) is expected to exceed
the port's capacity (1.3 million TEU), even taking into account the additional handling capacity of the
new terminal currently under construction (about 0.58 million TEU). The project aims to enhance the
container handling capacity of the port to meet future increase in container demand.
(4) Japan’s ODA Policy to Kenya
The following is the summary of the tasks identified by the Japanese government in its country-specific
assistance policy (project deployment plan) in the field of economic infrastructure and electric access
infrastructure:
(i) Development tasks in the fields of economic infrastructure and electric access infrastructure
In Nairobi, Kenya’s capital, population increase and segmentation of ring roads have caused serious traffic
congestion, traffic accidents, and automobile pollution. As urban planning started in the 1970s lose
substance, it is becoming more and more urgent for the government to develop an appropriate urban
planning and improve, maintain, and manage urban roads to address issues of population increase and
urbanization in recent years. Further, major highways in Kenya are in very poor conditions in about half of
the total length due to lack of appropriate maintenance. In addition, increase in the cost and time of
transportation due to the lack of handling capacity of Mombasa port is seriously hampering the economic
development of East African countries.
Kenya’s demand for electric power has sharply increased in recent years, the peak demand largely
exceeding the current power generation capacity. How to develop new sources of power generation is an
urgent issue. To address the tight balance of electric power demand and supply, it is urgent to get out of the
existing power generation system mainly relying on hydroelectric power generation, construct new power
plants, and enhance power lines.
(ii) How to achieve tasks in the two fields
In the field of economic infrastructure, we will help develop infrastructures in Nairobi, the capital, and
improve infrastructures from even wider perspective in such a way to help develop networks of physical
distribution with neighboring inland countries keeping in mind the importance of Kenya as physical
distribution hub in African region and the wide-area infrastructure assistance policy Japan expressed by
Japan in TICAD IV. Further, we will help develop not only social infrastructure, but another aspect of
infrastructure as well, such as smoother customs clearance and improved maintenance and management of
2-3
2-4
infrastructure.
In the field of electric access, we have played a central role in the electric sector in Kenya: In addition to
four power generation projects including Olkaria I No. 4 and No.5 geothermal power plants, we granted a
yen loan to an Olkaria-Lessos-Kisumu power line project in 2010. In the future, we will ensure the
supervision of existing projects, continue assisting the Kenyan power sector, while considering the
development of international power lines that will help the interexchange of electricity with neighboring
countries and improving electricity power access.
2.2 Legal system relating to occupational safety and health
This section summarizes the result of a survey conducted by Japan Construction Occupational Safety and
Health Association (JCOSHA) published in May 2015 under the title of “Safety and health management in
the construction industry overseas” published, a survey conducted by JICA published in February 2012
under the title of “Research survey on safety management in construction works in ODA projects,” and
information collected during our field survey.
(1) Overview
The concept of safety and health at workplace was introduced into Kenya, possibly under the influence of
UK, fairly early in 1951. With recent cooperation of ILO, SHM-related legislation has been developed
earlier than other developing countries. The Factories, etc. Labor Law, the SHM law implemented on the
occasion, aimed at increasing the health, safety, welfare of employees at workplace in factories, etc. Later,
based on the provisions of this basic act, guidelines on occupational safety and health, various laws and
regulations were established, and standards and guidelines on occupational safety and health at factories and
other workplaces were gradually developed.
(2) Guidelines on occupational safety and health management
In Kenya, Ministry of Labour (the predecessor of Ministry of Labour, Social Security and Services)
established and published The National Occupational Safety and Health Policy in 2012. The policy serves
as a de facto guideline for the development of a framework of occupational safety and health management
administration, development of related legislation, development of concrete measures for the improvement
of working environment.
i) Main Objective
The main objective of this policy is to establish national occupational safety and health systems
and programs geared towards the improvement of the work environment. The Policy seeks to reduce
the number of work-related accidents and diseases, and equitably provide compensation and
rehabilitation to those injured at work or who contract occupational diseases.
ii) Specific Objectives The specific objectives of this policy are:
a) To guide the development of laws, regulations and any other instruments on occupational safety
and health.
b) To recommend establishment and strengthening of responsible and accountable institutions for
management of occupational safety and health.
2-4
2-5
c) To recommend an enforcement and compliance mechanisms for occupational safety and health
laws and regulations.
d) To create mechanisms for cooperation between employers, workers and their representatives at
workplaces in the promotion of occupational safety and health.
e) To strengthen capacities of state and non-state actors in occupational safety and health
f) To create a resource mobilization mechanism for the implementation of this Policy
g) To initiate programs to disseminate occupational safety and health information and advisory
services.
h) To put in place programs for publicity and awareness creation on occupational safety and health
issues.
i) To strengthen research capacity in Occupational Safety and Health.
j) To develop a comprehensive information system for collection, analysis, storage, retrieval and
dissemination of data on work-related accidents, diseases and work injury Compensation.
k) To initiate support programs for continued improvement of occupational safety and health
practices and conditions in Micro and Small Enterprises and the informal sector of the economy.
l) To establish programs for collaboration with relevant insurance or social security schemes in
compensation for work related injuries and diseases, and rehabilitation of injured workers.
m) To mainstream occupational safety and health in learning institutions and communities.
n) To institutionalize social dialogue and partnership on occupational safety and health.
o) To mainstream occupational safety and health in all sectoral and cross sectoral development
issues.

(3) Laws and regulations related to occupational safety and health management
In 2007, many laws related to occupational safety and health management were implemented or updated,
including the Labor Institution Act, State Social Security Fund Act, Industrial Lawsuit Act, Industrial
Training Act, Employment Act, labour-related acts, Labor Accident act, and Labour Disaster Insurance Act.
Acts implemented in 2007 include Occupational Safety and Health Act, 2007, part of which was updated in
2012. The Act basically prescribes the implementation of the Occupational Safety and Health Act, the
authority of occupational safety and health inspector at work, the registration of workshops, general
provisions on health, general provisions on machines and chemical substances, and general provisions on
wages. Further, the Work and Injury Benefit Act, 2007, prescribes response of the owner and contractor,
compensation, and duty to notify upon work-related accidents, etc.
(i) Overview of Occupational Safety and Health Act, 2007
・ Responsibility of the owner, employer, worker, and designer at work; Implementation and
management of laws and regulations; Registration of workplace.
・ Hygiene and safety of workplace; General and special welfare regulations;
・ Permits and regulations for machine operation; handling of dangerous chemical substances;
・ Penalty, punishment, etc. for the violation of the Act;
(ii) The Work Injury Benefit Act, 2007
・Responsibility of employer;
・Victim’s Right to benefit;
・Duty to notify work-related accidents;
・Overview of benefits on the occurrence of work-related accidents;

(4) Boundary of responsibility between the primary contractor and subcontractors; Legal responsibility of
the primary contractor
Regulations on buildings and construction works do not expressly define the boundary of responsibility
between the primary contractor and subcontractors. However, the responsibility of the primary contractor is
defined as follows:
・ Direct parties concerned on the site so that people work in a safe and healthy environment;
・ Execute construction work in cooperation with Construction Design and Management
Coordinator (CDM);
・ Provide the site with prescribed welfare and health facilities;
・ If deemed necessary for safety and health on the site, prescribe appropriate regulations and
activities as site regulations;
・ Ensure good coordination between subcontractors on the site regarding work schedule
management, sufficient exchange and provision of information, etc.;
・ Prohibit third parties from entering the site;
(5) Laws and regulations on construction machines and equipment
As to standards on construction machines, there is no provision prescribing the quality of machines, but all
machines on the site are legally required to be given proper safeguard and maintenance. At factories, too, it
is legally required for machines and tools to normally operate for a certain period of time and be given good
maintenance.

2.3 Administration relating to labor safety and health
(1) Administrative system for occupational safety and health management
As a result of the reorganization of governmental offices in May 2013 in Kenya, the Ministry of Labour
Public Services and Human Resource Development and the Ministry of Gender, Children and Social
Development merged into Ministry of Labour, Social Security and Services. The national administration of
occupational safety and health management is ensured by the Directorate of Occupational Safety & Health
Services (DOSHS), an office of the MLSSS that improves and develops related laws and regulations and
various policies and measures.
In the administration of occupational safety and health management, the support of the International Labour
Organization (ILO) has played an influential role, but, in the development and implementation of
OSHM-related legislation, UK, the suzerain state, has historically exerted strong influence.
In a recent few years, the government has worked energetically in the field of OSHM administration to open
various institutions to conduct related studies, raise awareness and develop skills among people, etc. under
relevant laws and regulations successively implemented (or amended) in 2007.
Figure 2.3.1 OSHM-related institutions under the Kenyan government
(2) Ministry of Labour, Social Security and Services
i) Organization
The Ministry of Labour, Social Security and Services is comprised of nine departments and offices, i.e.
Department of Labour, Office of Registrar of Trade Unions, Department of Children Services,
Department of Social Development, Social Protection Secretariat, Directorate of Occupational Safety and
Health Services (DOSHS), National Employment Bureau (NEB), Productivity Center of Kenya (PCK),
National Human Resource Planning and Development (NHRPD); and three autonomous associations, i.e. ,
National Industrial Training Authority, National Council for Persons with Disability, National Council for
2-8
2-9
Children Services; and Social Security Funds.
ii) Role of DOSHS
The DOSHS is comprised of eight sections each ensuring, respectively, occupational health, occupational
safety, occupational safety and health research institute, onsite activities, work-related accidents,
information and training, medical care, and health care. Pursuant to the passage of the Decentralization
Act in May 2013, many authorities were delegated to 47 county governments, but the DOSH still
supervises the occupational safety and health management of 29 counties by dispatching there its own
OSH supervisors.
The primary roles of the DOSHS include:
・ Onsite inspection of workplace and workshops to ensure implementation and management of the
OSH Act;
・ Onsite inspection of workplace to find causes or prevent occurrence of work-related accidents and
diseases;
・ Measurement of wastes and pollutants from workplace; guidance for prevention, response, and
management of these materials;
・ Medical examination of workers; guidance for health management workers;
・ Education on and guidance for occupational safety and health;
・ Provision of OSH information to the employer, employees, and third parties concerned;
・ Approval of design of buildings to be used as workplace;
・ Implementation and management of the Work Injury Benefit Act, including procedures for payment
of benefits to victims of work-related accidents;
・ Prosecution of violators of the OSH Act;
(3) National Construction Authority (NCA)
With the approval on December 2, 2011 and coming into effect on June 8, 2012 of The National
Construction Authority Act, the Board of the National Construction Authority started on July 4, 2012. The
purpose of the NCA is to oversee the construction industry and coordinate various participants in the
industry for its development.
The main functions of NCA are as follows.
・To promote and stimulate the development, improvement and expansion of the construction industry;
・To advise and make recommendations to the Minister on matters affecting or connected with the
construction industry;
・To undertake or commission research into any matter relating to the construction industry;
・To prescribe the qualifications or other attributes required for registration as a contractor under this
Act;
・To assist in the exportation of construction services connected to the construction industry;
・To provide consultancy and advisory services with respect to the construction industry;
・To promote and ensure quality assurance in the construction industry;
・To encourage the standardization and improvement of construction techniques and materials;
2-9
2-10
・To initiate and maintain a construction industry information system;
・To provide, promote, review and co-ordinate training programs organized by public and private
accredited training centers for skilled construction workers and construction site supervisors;
・To accredit and register contractors and regulate their professional undertakings;
・To accredit and certify skilled construction workers and construction site supervisors;
・To develop and publish a code of conduct for the construction industry; and
・To do all other things that may be necessary for the better carrying out of its functions under the Act.
The largest difference of the NCA from the DOSHS under the MLSSS is that the NCA prescribes
qualifications necessary for the registration of constructors, certifies experienced construction workers
and site foremen, and registers buildings and civil engineering projects prior to commencement of
construction works.
(4) Supervising and certifying bodies
The MLSSS also ensures supervision and certification in the field of OSHM. The ministry holds 29 county
offices over 47 counties and its more than 80 OSH inspectors each conduct onsite inspection in their
territories (mainly to check whether laws and regulations are complied with). If they find problems with the
management or maintenance of safe working environment, the inspectors have authority to order the
suspension of work till proper measure is taken, discuss with or propose specific measures to the owner or
the contractor to improve working environment.
i) Inspection of construction sites by OSH inspectors
All construction sites in Kenya are legally required to register themselves. Further, to follow up its
supervision and monitoring of sites, DOSHS keeps all records of sites it visited and supervised. Onsite
inspection is conducted by OSH inspectors prescribed by OSH Act to make sure that provisions on
occupational health, safety, hygiene, and welfare are duly implemented and complied with and give
guidance as necessary. To conduct onsite inspection, the inspectors are delegated the following
authorities:
・Take pictures and videos on the site;
・Take samples on the site;
・Conduct interview surveys among people at workplace;
・Inspectors with medical license may conduct medical examination of workers;
・Accompany police inspectors if necessary;
ii) Response to remarks given on inspection (reports on measures taken, degrees of penalties and
punishment)
Problems found on inspection are responded to as follows:
a) Instructions for improvement → Instructions for improvement within a prescribed period of time →
Improvement checked on a following visit;
b) If not improved within the prescribed period of time, the OSH inspector may order closure of the site,
ban the use of the workshop or prosecutes the violator as necessary (Article 4-37, the OSHM Act);
2-10
2-11
(5) Accident notification system
Whenever a work-related accident has occurred, the site must directly notify the relevant section of the
MLSSS. This is prescribed not only by provisions on duty to notify in the OSH Act and the Injury Benefit
Act implemented in 2007, but also by a guideline on accident notification prescribed by the MLSSS. The
notice must be given within 24 hours in case of a fatal accident and within seven days in case of a major
accident.
The MLSSS annually collects the statistics of work-related and other accidents, but not to the extent they
can be used as a database, without detailed classification by industry, for example. In most cases the data
remain simple notices and record of random accidents, without allowing analyzing causes and finding
countermeasures. The accident notice format is already established.
The Ministry of Public Works in Kenya has no accident notification systems or accident statistics. They say
that records are archived for major accidents, but not for minor ones.
(Source: JICA, Research survey on safety management in construction works in ODA projects, February
2012)
(i) Whether or when to notify
・When an accident has occurred at workplace;
・When an occupational disease has occurred at workplace;
・When the workplace faces a danger;
(ii) By when to notify
・ In case of a fatal or other major accident, notify the DOSHS within 24 hours in writing or speech
and thereafter within 7 days in three copies of the prescribed format (Table 2.3.1)
・ In case of other accidents, notify the DOSHS within 7 days in three copies of the prescribed
format (Table 2.3.1);
・ When a doctor diagnosed an occupational disease, notify the DOSHS within 7 days in a
prescribed format;
(iii) Whom to notify
・Fill in three copies of the notice format (Table 2.3.1) and send one to the DOSHS and two to the
county OSH inspector;
・If the case may involve a crime, notice must be given also to the police;
(iv) Who is responsible for notification
・In case of an accident or a dangerous situation, the owner of the workplace or employer gives the
notice in the format in Table 2.3.1; In case of an occupational disease, the doctor gives the notice
in the prescribed format. The information to be provided is the name, sex, age, post, years of
service, and address of the victim; date and place of accident; nature of work, type of accident,
cause of accident, injured part, etc.;
Shown below in Table 2.3.1 is the notice format.

2.4 Qualifications system relating to labor safety and health
(1) General status of educational, training, and qualification activities
Besides MLSSS, the government agencies governing education and training include the Ministry of Higher
Education, but the latter is an organization of advanced research on education in a variety of fields and, as
such, is primarily engaged in activities to, according to a policy agenda, enhance coordination with
universities and colleges, seek equal and fair educational opportunities, reduce disparities in related matters,
extend educational opportunities nationwide, check consistency between market strategies and educational
curriculums, monitor against educational inequalities between the sexes, etc. The agency that is primarily in
charge of educational activities on OSHS in the construction industry is the MLSSS.
The MLSSS has developed a variety of training courses to develop OSHM skills for attendees mainly from
among employers and workers in the private sectors. Training activities have been already in place.
i) Presence of OSHM experts (private sector consultants, etc.)
There are people called Occupational Safety and Health Services Advisors, a qualification given by the
MLSSS (54 holders as of November 2011; more than 80 as of October 2015, the time this field study was
conducted), who work as a kind of consultant and agent of the MLSSS by checking how safety is managed
on the site and delver reports to the MLSSS (the difference being that, while the OSHM officers of the
MLSSS attach more importance to legal compliance, the Services Advisors focus on helping employers
develop safer working environment). However, other government agencies who order construction works,
such as the Ministry of Transport and Infrastructure, have not yet developed such OSHM experts from
private sectors. They think that, in the construction industry as a whole, they have not yet fully developed
these human resources.
ii) Outsourcing safety audit and guidance
Besides the inspectors at the local offices of the MLSSS, OSH Services Advisors mentioned in i) above
sometimes play an important role in the management of OSH on the site. The subcontractor for OSHM
activities individually contacts an OSH Services Advisor, who ensures OSHM of the site under the
agreement for the subcontractor. This system is widely used in foreign assistance projects and Kenyan local
projects under the OSH Act implemented in 2007. The frequency of onsite inspection by OSH Services
Advisor [複数] legally required is only once a year, but significantly varies in practice depending on the
needs of the site, judgment of the subcontractors and Advisors think, etc.
Upon reports from local offices, the MLSSS visits the site, discusses with the employer, etc. gives guidance
to improve the situation, and checks whether the subcontractor complies with relevant laws and regulations.
(2) Setting up a safety committee on each site
In 2004, the Kenyan government issued “Legal Notice No.31, The Factories and Other Places of Work
(Safety and Health Committees) Act” requiring operating bodies who own Factories and Other Places of
work employing 20 or more workers to set up Safety and Health Committees. The committee aims to
enhance the workforce’s ability to manage itself and encourage workers to participate in OSHM in the
form of the tripartite committee where workers and the management each have the equal say.
2-14
2-15
On each site, the number of safety officers to be assigned to the site is determined according to the number
of workers engaged in various categories of work.
For example, if the number of workers is:
20 to100 : Three or more representatives each from of the management and the workers:
100 to1000 : Five or more representatives each from the management and the workers:
1000 or more : Seven or more representatives each from of the management and the workers:
Shown below is the part concerned of the above government notice.

Figure 2.5.1(1) OSHM guideline
2.5 Safety standards guidelines and manuals
(1) Overview
The law is not specific on the establishment of OSH management systems at the enterprise level, but all
the elements of ILO-OSH 2001 have been adequately covered in OSHA 2007. However, individual
organizations have established management systems based on diverse standards.
All standards in the country, including technical standards, are developed by the Kenya Bureau of
Standards (KEBS). At KEBS there are various technical committees comprising experts who are involved in
developing standards in their specialized areas. All the standards developed by KEBS are voluntary, and
become mandatory only when they are cited in legislation or legal notices. The developed standards that are
related to OSH are divided into three categories: management systems (procedures, risk assessment and
incident investigation); facilities (equipment and environment); and human factors.
The national competent authority (DOSHS) makes use of the ILO codes of practice when developing
legislation and working documents for use by enterprises. It also implements two locally developed codes
of practice: one on OSH auditing, which provides guidelines for safety and health advisers when carrying
out workplace safety and health audits; and the other on PPE, which sets guidelines for employers, workers,
suppliers, manufacturers and the general public on how to manage the provision of PPE, including its
selection, use, storage and maintenance. The Federation of Kenya Employers (FKE) has adopted the ILO
code of practice on HIV/AIDS and the world of work by developing a code that is currently being used by
its members.
(2) National level OSHM guidelines
In 2014, the Ministry of Health issued a policy guideline in the
field of OSHM at the national level. Starting with the
presentation of basic policy on OSH services at the national
level, the guideline describes the sharing of OSHM functions
and roles between the central government and local
governments in the administrative framework, roles expected
from OSH officers, classification of various work-related
accidents, measures to be taken to reduce damage, risk
evaluation and management, etc.
Figure at right 2.5.1 shows the cover page and the figure in the
next page the table of contents of the OSHM guideline.

2.6 Workmen’s compensation and insurance
(1) Provisions on compensation for work-related accidents
For worker’s death or injury caused by a work-related accident that happened on the site, the employer is
required, according to the Work Injury Benefit Act, 2007 (WIBA) to pay the victims prescribed
compensation. Shown below is the part concerned of the WIBA.
WORK INJURY BENEFITS ACT [Date of assent: 22nd October, 2007.]
PART III – RIGHT TO COMPENSATION
10. Right to compensation (1) An employee who is involved in an accident resulting in the employee’s disablement or death is
subject to the provisions of this Act, and entitled to the benefits provided for under this Act. (2) An employer is liable to pay compensation in accordance with the provisions of this Act to an
employee injured while at work.
Excerpts from the WORK INJURY BENEFITS ACT, 2007
The amount of insurance claim to be paid as compensation (treatment expense and compensation) is
calculated by the relevant service of the MLSSS based on the diagnosis by a medical doctor (taking into
account the victim’s age, degree of injury, income, etc.). Table 2.6.1 shows the list of rates of payment of
insurance claim prescribed by the WIBA in cases of death and injury of the worker while working on a
construction site (part).
Depending on the gravity of disability, the amount of compensation is prescribed as follows:
(i) If unable to work for three consecutive days or more: The minister determines the amount of
benefit based on the amount of the victim’s monthly salary (Article 29, WIBA);
(ii) If unable to work permanently: The minister determines the amount of benefit based on the amount
of the victim’s salary for 96 months (Article 30, WIBA);
30. Compensation for permanent disablement (1) Compensation for permanent disablement shall be calculated on the basis of ninety-six months
earnings subject to the minimum and maximum amounts determined by the Minister, after consultation with the Board.
Excerpts from the WORK INJURY BENEFITS ACT, 2007
(iii) If, during the victim’s training, met an accident causing permanent disability: The minister
determines the amount of benefit based on the amount of a salary that a person having worked for
five years in the same type of work (Article 32, WIBA);
(iv) In case of the victim’s death, the survivors will receive the prescribed compensation for death plus
the amount of funeral expense determined by the minister (the director-general) and the local
assembly (Article 34, WIBA);
2-21
2-22
Table 2.6.1 Rate of compensation benefit in case of death and injury (correspondent to (ii) above)
In case of work-related accidents, there is no system by which the national government compensates the
victim. The only case the national government compensates the victim is when one of its employees met an
accident on the site.
As to response in case of public disaster, the OSH Act prescribes that the one who is responsible for
compensating workers and neighboring residents on the site is the contractor, but when public disaster
occurred in the proximity of the site, the amount to be paid by the contractor is determined at court based on
the WIBA according to established customs. The time to take for the amount to be determined varies by
type and scale of accident, but sometime it takes more than five years. There are a large number of lawsuits
disputed over these accidents. There is no system of temporary payment to the victim before the judgment is
given.
(2) Work-related accidents and construction work insurance
They say that generally in domestic construction works, the insurance company consults the owner and the
contractor and select the insurance policy they purchase (according to the MLSSS). Since the Work Injury
Benefit Act does not refer to any third-party accident, the contractor needs to purchase another insurance
policy that covers third party compensation. The primary contractor is held responsible also for accidents
caused by subcontractors.
Further, other than work-related accident insurance, all employers (The amendment made in May 2014
extended the scope of responsibility from companies employing five or more employees to all employers)
are required to subscribe to the National Social Security Funds (NSSF) and the National Health Insurance
Funds (NHIF). The employer is responsible for withdrawing employee’s insurance premiums from their
salary and paying them to the relevant authority.
Further, in construction works, under the direction of Architectural Association of Kenya and Joint Building
Council, the contractor is required to purchase a lump-sum construction work insurance policy as part of
construction work agreement.
At the Ministry of Transport and Infrastructure, what the government handles is workers’ compensation for
its own employees. On all road construction work sites, the ministry is required to subscribe to two kinds of
insurance: All Risks Insurance and Third Party Insurance. (Source: Research survey on safety management

As general insurance related to construction work, there is Contractor’s All Risk Policy.
This insurance covers disasters, accidents, thefts of machines and tools, damage to third parties, etc. that
occur on the site. It usually covers the items shown below, but the terms of compensation, etc. vary
depending on negotiation with the insurance company when concluding the agreement.
What generally covered by construction insurance
(i) Contract, Machinery & Equipments All Risk Cover
Compensation of thefts of construction machines and tools and of damage to structures;
(ii) Public Liability Insurance
Compensation of damage to third parties caused by construction works;
(iii) Work Injury Benefits Act(WIBA)Insurance and Employers Liability

accidents;
(iv) Special Risks
Collapse due to natural disasters, including rain storms, earthquakes, landslides, floods, and delay
of completion;
(3) Settlement with victims of work-related disasters and accidents
The WIBA prescribes that the victim or their representative complete benefit claiming procedure within 12
months of the accident or confirmed death of the victim. After reception of the notice of accident, Director
of Work Injury Benefits inspects the site of accident to investigate the circumstances and follows
procedures for settlement between parties concerned, payment of benefits, etc.

b. Geology
Mombasa is located some 8 – 100m above sea level on coastal lowland. The geological map of Mombasa is
shown in Figure 3.1.2. The geology of Mombasa area is categorized as follow: ① A 6km wide coastal plain
area between Kisauni on the northern mainland to Mtongwe on the southern mainland including Mombasa
Island. A coastal terrace consisting of elevated coral reef along the coast. ② The western area of Mombasa is
composed of a rock layer of ground shale from the Jurassic period and sand. This area is composed of
materials from the tertiary system and the Mesozoic system. ③ Mountainous plateau made of sandstone. –
This project is located in Area ②.

c. Oceanographic Phenomena
The tidal data of Kilindini Harbor is shown Table 3.1.3. The lowest and highest tide level is -0.1m and 4.1m.
The maximum speed of the tide at the entrance of the harbor is about 0.5 knots.

Wave height is relatively small since the harbor is small and there is a coral reef around the entrance of the
harbor. The wave height reaches only 0.5m max. at strong wind. (Contractor’s observations)
(2) Port Conditions
At the beginning stage of works, the Employer and the Contractor discussed the designated work areas where
access of vessels were to be limited. The Employer issued notices to each stakeholder concerning limiting
access to the work areas. (Contractor’s information)
(3) Human Resources
- There is no local subcontractor in Kenya with sufficient offshore works experience. Though the Contractor
employed several local subcontractors for onshore works, there are few competent local firms.
- For some work items the Contractor is directly employing a large number of local workers through worker
dispatching companies. Since there are a very limited number of skilled workers, more Japanese and Filipino
staffs than initially planned are assigned to directly supervise workers.
- Site supervision including safety management was mainly conducted by Japanese staffs. Office works were
undertaken by Filipino and Kenyan staffs under Japanese staffs’ supervision. CAD operations and quantity
calculations with which Kenyan staffs were not familiar were conducted under supervision of Japanese and
Filipino engineers.
- Training of local staffs including subcontractors workers was conducted persistently giving repetitive
instructions on basic things such as wearing helmet, chin strap and safety shoes. Keeping things tidy on site
was also kept reminded to promote safety awareness.
(Contractor’s information)
(4) Security
- In Mombasa where the project is located there was a riot related to the presidential election in 2007, and
therefore the project has been focusing not only on “occupational safety and health” but also on “security”.
Countermeasures to occupational safety and health and security are closely interrelated at various points.
- Since private security staffs are not allowed to carry guns, local police was deployed for enhancement of
3-4
3-5
security. At the peak time of the project, fifty guards, consisting of 30 from private security companies and
20 from local police, have been assigned on a basis of 24 hours/day and 365 days/year in the project area of
40ha. They work in 2 shifts of 12 hours. Costs incurred were shouldered by the Contractor.
- Provision of guards is for prevention of intrusion of outsiders/suspicious persons, which is also serving for
protection of workers and prevention of theft. The work area, stretching from the gate to include 3km-long
access road, is totally enclosed by barbed-wire fences. Intrusion of squatters living nearby is also prevented.
- Speed limit of vehicles in the project area is also controlled by private security and local police to prevent
traffic accident in the area.
- This region, subjected to activities of Al-Shabaab (Islamic extremists), has risks of terrorism as well as
general crimes, which is one of the reasons why security is strengthened. The thorough entry/exit
management system contributes to elimination of suspicious persons and hazardous substances.
- Biweekly security meetings are held attended by police, security companies and the Contractor to discuss
repairing of fence, preventive measures to suspicious persons’ intrusion, etc. Security measures are taken
mainly lead by the Contractor.
- The seaside is being guarded by Marine Police on a 24 hours basis.
- Triggered by the incident in the project (subcontractor’s staff shot dead) and the terrorism to a Japanese
company in Algeria in 2013, the security system was strengthened. The project was suspended for a week
until the cause of incident was investigated and the necessary countermeasures were fully taken.
- After the above incident security was enhanced getting great cooperation from local police, supported by the
Japanese Embassy and JICA.
- Security meetings are held every 3 months chaired by the Country Commissioner. In the meetings, the
Employer, police, the Contractor, Japanese Embassy and JICA (as an observer) exchange information and
periodically update the security system to suit the project progress.
- It is difficult for the Contractor alone to set up a strengthened security system involving the Kenya side after
commencement of a project. Hence, it is preferable to make necessary arrangement for security in the
contract and/or in the agreement between Japanese and Kenyan governments at formation of the project.

3.2 Project Organization
3.2.1 Stakeholders
In this project organization, the Engineer is General Manager of the Employer (KPA), and the Consultant acts
as the Engineer’s Representative, and the structure is not a complete three parties one (The Employer-The
Engineer-The Contractor).
Figure 3.2.1 Project Organization Chart (Source: Study Team)
The Engineer (KPA) is responsible for financial matters, and the Engineer’s Representative is responsible for
all other matters. Therefore, the structure is virtually the same as the three parties structure prevailing in ODA
project in Asian countries. (Contractor’s information)
A Dispute Board (DB) is established in this project, which may be the first case in Japanese ODA loan
projects. According to observations by a staff in JICA Kenya Office, the existence of DB appears to have
generated a tense atmosphere between the Employer and the Contractor, which could have positively affected
safety management in the project.

3.2.2 The Consultant’s Duties
The consultancy contract for design, tender assistance and construction supervision was signed in 2009 before
preparation of the tender documents such as conditions of contract, Specifications, BOQ and so on.
Consequently, it does not necessarily include detailed description on the scope of each work to be undertaken
by the consultant. Detailed information on the Engineer’s duties is described in the conditions of construction
contract and specifications prepared by the consultant itself.
The Consultant’s duties as the Engineer with regard to construction supervision are shown in the following
table. There is no detailed/concrete description is provided on the Consultant’s role on safety management in
the consultancy contract. The budget and organization for safety management was prepared on that basis.
Table 3.2.1 The Consultant’s Duties (during construction)
Ideally the construction contract documents and/or specifications prepared by the Consultant’s design team
should have described in detail the role of the Consultant’s construction supervision team. However, maybe
due to the predetermined budget constraints, it was not the case, and consequently a sufficient number of
personnel was not assigned to safety management works.
1) To check and recommend approval and/or modification of the proposals and documents. 2) To prepare additional designs, and supply of all necessary working drawings for the Contractor for approval by KPA for satisfactory execution of works. 3) To check the location, alignment and workmanship of all works as laid out by the Contractor. 4) To recommend acceptance or rejection of materials to be used or incorporated in the works. 5) To continuously inspect the works and issue necessary instructions to the Contractor. 6) To check monthly contract applications for payments and regularly progress payments. 7) To assist KPA in negotiating and execution of any Change Order. 8) To check, evaluate and recommend for approval by KPA the Contractor’s and Supplier’s Work Schedule and Progress Schedule. 9) To conduct periodic Coordination Meetings as may be required. 10) To maintain permanent Records of Measurements made for the works, quantities to be paid and results of all tests made on materials used in the work. 11) To evaluate and make recommendations for KPA’s approval of all claims, disputes and request for time or changes that Contractor may request. 12) To supervise the fabrication/installation of all the equipment and facilities at the site and performance of Final Performance Tests. 13) To recommend the issue of Interim Payment Certificates, Certificate of Completion, Final Payment Certificates and Performance Certificates. 14) To submit to KPA, upon issuance of the Final Certificate of Acceptance of the Project, all job records, as-built drawings as well as the required written instructions. 15) To conduct management of site safety.

3.3 Operation and Management Procedure
3.3.1 Overall Framework of Project Management
In this study, bearing the above in mind, it is defined that safety in construction projects consists of two
components, “Safety of Works” and “Occupational Safety and Health”, with a view to analyzing the
information on the project to describe the operation and management procedure.
The reasons of highlighting “Safety of Works” are; (1) The cause of the Can Tho bridge accident occurred in
2007 in Vietnam is attributable to technical problems related to design & construction of temporary structures;
and (2) To highlight the differences between ODA projects and projects in Japan summarized in Table 3.3.1
below:

Usually specifications prepared by the Employer/the Consultant include detailed description on the
requirements on safety and quality. However, only general description on safety and quality is provided in this
project. The Consultant’s construction supervision team’s comments on the matter are summarized in the
following table.
Table 3.3.5 Comments on Safety/Quality Provisions in the Contract Documents
- In this project, only general description is provided on safety and quality in General Conditions of Contract and Specifications.
In Phase 2, it is recommended to describe the Consultant’s role on safety and quality more concretely/in detail.
- Safety management does cost. It is not clear in the contract of this project where safety management cost is included (not
expressly included in the BOQ), by which the Consultant has difficulties in executing proper supervision/cost evaluation on
safety.
- It is assumed that the unit each price item in the BOQ includes safety costs. However, when the Contractor prepares a facility for
safety which is not expressly spelled out in the BOQ, it is difficult to categorize where such cost falls into.
- It is assumed that costs of all temporary works proposed by the Contractor include overheads. The Consultant is always
wondering how much overheads are included. The Contractor may use cheap materials for temporary works.

3.4 Site Visit
The progress of works as of the end of September 2015 was 94% targeting the completion in February 2016.
At the time of the Study Team’s site visit early October 2015, the main parts of works had already been
completed, and only minor road works and building finishing works were on-going. Hence, site investigation
was done mainly based on interviews to project staff. Information on the works obtained from the Contractor
is summarized in Articles 3.4.1–3.4.4.
3.4.1 Contractor’s Project Management Approach
- Marine works and soft soil improvement works (with PVD) were completed at the beginning of 2014.
Following those, surcharge in the reclaimed area and piling works started. During marine works, the
number of workers was not many and mainly Japanese and Filipino staffs were working then. Dredging and
piling works were implemented directly supervised by the main Contractor staffs.
- The present Contractor’s organization was formed after the beginning of 2014 when the number of local
workers started increasing and the number of Japanese/Filipino staffs also increased to supervise workers
with a direct supervision system.
- In this project Japanese staffs of the Contractor, headed by the project manager, are spending most of the
time outside the office to supervise workers.
- Training of Kenyan staff started October 2013, starting from training machine operators, followed by
training of slinging, radio gymnastic exercises, etc.
- Initially machine operators were Filipino staffs who were gradually and successfully replaced by Kenyan
staffs. Presently welders and heavy equipment operators are Kenyan.
3.4.2 Marine Works
- Of the construction period the first half was spent mainly for offshore (marine) works and the second works
for onshore works. Since local staffs are unable to handle marine works, those works were handled by
Japanese/Filipino staffs directly employed and some other staffs from Singapore.
- There are international practices for the process and procedure for marine works in international waters. The
marine works in this project were implemented basically in accordance with such practices, and therefore
method statements prepared/submitted did not necessarily describe much about safety. The contents of
method statements were only general work flows and relevant safety matters.
- Having daily discussions on vessel locations in/near the work area and anchoring positions, method
statements did not necessarily describe such details. Anchoring positions of piling barges, grab dredgers, etc.
change every day. Hence, daily discussions are more important than written statements in method
statements, and it is not practical to describe details in the Safety Policy.
- At the beginning stage of works, the Employer and the Contractor discussed the designated work areas
where access of vessels were to be limited.
- Fortunately, the work area was at the deepest part of harbor and commercial vessels did not enter. Wave was
not high. Tidal currents were relatively strong. Diving works were jointly implemented by Japanese and
Kenyan divers, where the main works were undertaken by Japanese divers.
3-16
3-17
- The meteorological and oceanographic conditions of the work area were good. The wave height reaches only
0.5m max. at strong wind. The water depth was 2m on average.
3.4.3 Temporary Works
- Though sometimes the superstructures of berths require large temporary works, this project improved the
construction method to cast H-beam supports for formworks into beam concrete, and it made the size of
temporary works small. Soffit shutters were hung from H-beam supports. This expensive method was
engaged so that local workers without technical expertise can handle the works.
- Other temporary works are a temporary jetty for embarking steel piles and concrete blocks, and formwork
supports and scaffoldings for buildings.
3.4.4 Contractor’s Safety Management
- Of the construction period the first half was spent mainly for offshore (marine) works and the second works
for onshore works. Since local subcontractors did not have sufficient experience of offshore works, those
works were handled by Japanese/Filipino staffs directly employed and a competent Singaporean contractor.
Few accidents occurred during such period. Accidents started occurring after commencing land works.
- A secret of maintaining a tense atmosphere among workers is to catch a moment of enthusiasm-rising in
workers and let them carry on maintaining such feeling until completion of the work. To stop the work to
think may result in laziness, which should be avoided. To make sure it, close safety management was
conducted through Japanese staffs frequent site visit to raise Kenyan workers safety awareness.
- There is no particular approach in this project which was used for the first time compared with projects in
other countries. It was made doubly sure to repetitively train local staffs/workers from the basic.
- This project has many operations requiring heavy equipment. Since unsafe operations (move back without
confirming the rear side) were observed initially, the number of inspectors had to be increased.
- The project was instructed by JICA Kenya Office to enhance preventive measures to accident after a fatal
accident involving a Japanese staff in a road project in Nairobi. It was made doubly sure to equip heavy
equipment with alarm buzzer and to inspect back-mirrors. In another word, basic things were thoroughly
executed repeatedly to promote safety awareness and to prevent accident.

Chapter 4 Analysis of Accidents
4.1 Outline of Accidents
In Mombasa Port Development Project, only one grave accident was reported as shown in the table below in
the period of three years and eight months (March 2012 to October 2015: when this investigation was
conducted). The accident was judged as no case characteristics. It was reported to JICA and other stake
holders due to the fact that a drowned body of a worker of the project was found in the construction area
although the accident has no relation with the project thus it was not an occupational accident.
Table 4.1.1 Outline of Accident Reported to JICA
No. Date and Time of
Accident Outline of Accident Dead Injured

Around 07:30 of February 26th 2014, a drowned body of Kenyan staff who was working as a survey assistant near the location of marine steel piles at the new container berth. By the result of investigation of the authority, the accident was concluded that it was no case characteristics, nor no occupational accident. The incident was dealt with as an accidental death unrelated with the project.
1 - -
Note 1) Reportable accident to JICA: Fatal accident; Accident with 2 or more than 2 injuries; Accident with third party seriously injured; Accident with material social impact
Note 2) Reportable accident to KPA: All accidents (See Kenya Ports Authority: Health, Safety & Environment Management System)
Other than the above, there have been 19 cases of occupational accidents and 18 cases of accidents which
caused damage to heavy equipment as shown in Figure 3.4.1 and Table 4.1.2, mostly in minor nature and not
subject to reporting to JICA.
Taking the magnitude of the project and the time elapsed to present into account, the project can be
appreciated to have been in good situation as for safety management. However, it should be noted that six
accidents with injuries occurred in six months from April 2015 to September 2015, the time of the
investigation.
Equipment accidents also should be noted that similar accidents occurred at the same location (Ex. Table 4.1.2
Accidents Damaging to Equipment Nos. 1, 3, 5 and 8; Nos. 2, 4 and 7) at the initial stage of the project. The
main cause of those similar accidents is considered due to improper mechanism/maintenance of equipment
owned by subcontractors, however, more active involvement by the main contractor is deemed as necessary in
using such equipment. As the project progresses, those accidents became rare, which implies the effect of
learning by project stakeholders.
It is very important to study every kind of accident/incident including near misses to prevent grave accidents
before they occur. In this project, the Contractor has an in-house system called “Accident Recurrence
Prevention Meeting” whereby a meeting, attended by the Project Manager as the chairman and other site staffs,
is called immediately after accident/incident to share the information, investigate the causes of accident and
plan accident recurrence preventive measures.
Table 4.1.3 provides an extract from the reports on “Accident Recurrence Prevention Meeting” conducted on
4-1
4-2
the two accidents occurred in September 2015, wherein accident information is thoroughly collected/described
and analyzed on 4 factors (human, equipment/material, subcontractor, prime contractor) to plan
countermeasures and countermeasures were planned based on the analysis.

4.2 Procedure of Analysis of Accidents
(1) Course of Analysis
In the Project, only one grave accident was reported to JICA as shown in the Table 4.1.1 in the period of three
years and eight months.
As stated in 4.1, safety management in this project has been functioned relatively well and shows good result.
But in general, when accident occurs, needless to say, the management makes great effort to secure safety in
the project and takes various measures to prevent accidents. However, it cannot be said that the situation is
satisfactorily improved because accidents/near miss incidents are still happening even now. This situation
would be happening because pursuit of root causes may have been insufficient, or the causes may have been
left without proper countermeasures being taken or the countermeasures may not be efficient.
In this study we applied the Root Cause Analysis which is often used in Nuclear Power Plants, IT companies
and some medical organizations for solving problems. The purpose of application of the method is to pursue
management and organizational factors and to study countermeasures not reacting to mere phenomenon and
results but solving the real problems existing behind the superficial phenomenon.
(2) Root Cause Analysis
1) Necessity of the Root Cause Analysis
The concepts and methods of the root cause analysis are rather new, and there are some definitions
regarding “Root Cause Analysis” as shown in the table below.

(Note) The definition was made as state considering many accidents and troubles are happening due to inadequate action by the organization although the reason has already been technically clear.
The root cause analysis was originally developed for the purpose of preventing recurrence of accidents in
nuclear power plants. However, there have been very few examples of application of the root cause analysis
to accident analysis in the construction industry. There are similarities between construction sites and
nuclear power plants as a working place where a lot of people work together as follows;
・They are the fields where both the soft engineering and hard engineering assimilate together.
4-3
4-4
・They are the fields where human interfaces with machine.
・They are the fields where a Quality Management System (QMS) approved in advance is applied to
manage the process.
・They are the fields where the possibilities that organizational factors would lead to the accidents is high.
In the construction industry in Japan, the number of accidents and also the number of victims have been
greatly decreased last three decades owing to improvement of safety awareness and various safety
facilities/equipment and so on. However, the decreasing tendency seems to reach the ceiling recently. The
phenomenon seems to imply that the traditional methods of analysis and countermeasures would come to its
limit for further improvement.
In this sense, it is necessary to direct spotlight on not only to the direct/indirect causes but also to the
management and organizational factors behind the accidents.
2) Process of Analysis
The process of the Root Cause Analysis applied in the study is outlined as follows;
a) Determination of accidents for analysis
b) Gathering information (domestically)
c) Understanding of the facts and problematic phenomenon
d) Conducting pre-analysis prior to the site investigation
e) The site investigation and information gathering (locally)
f) Conducting analysis of accidents
g) Extraction and evaluation of management/organizational factors
h) Study for countermeasures and recommendation on safety
3) Selection of Technique for Root Cause Analysis
There are several techniques that can be used as the Root Cause Analysis, such as “Why-why Analysis
(5-Why Analysis)”, “Cause Effect Diagram” and “4M5E Matrix Analysis”. Those except for Why-why
Analysis have defect that factors tend to diffuse and it becomes difficult to specify the true cause logically.
Why-why Analysis is judged as the most suitable method for the study by the easiness to understand for the
people who might be unfamiliar with such an analytic area and its superiority in logical thinking by the
relation of the cause and the result.
4) What is Why-why Analysis?
This is a technique of analysis to find out the true causes based on the facts by logically repeating not by
inspiration or by the fifth sense. It is necessary to list all factors systematically which lead to the
phenomenon.
This technique was originally started form the improvement activities in Toyota Motor Corp. It is a way of
thinking to pursue the true cause of the phenomenon or flaws by repeating “Why?” (Figure 4.2.1, 4.2.2)

5) Combining Value Engineering (VE) with the Root Cause Analysis
If the management/organizational factors are specified, it is expected that the safety of the project will be
improved by rectifying the factors. However, the countermeasures derived in general, tend to be too much
direct to the phenomenon, in other words, the measures are taken by only just like flipping over the
phenomenon, and would result in the situation that the real cause is left as it is.
Here, we decided to apply the theory and technique of Value Engineering in this study in order to clarify the
process of occurrence of an accident by the management/organizational factors, and to devise effective
countermeasures from the point of view of what is necessary to achieve functions (purposes) to prevent

recurrence of the accident.
VE is a theory and technique to improve the value of the object (goods and services). Everything that has
some purpose and consumes any resource such as cost has “value”.
VE, first of all, understands the essence of the object an aggregate of necessary functions. And then, based
on the understanding of the functions, any and all possible ideas to achieve the function are explored and
searched to materializes new measures to achieve the purpose, and finally to improve the value of the
object.
Generally speaking, improvement will be achieved in the safety management activities, by clarifying causes
of the accident and by eliminating the causes. This is called the Analytical Approach.
In Value Engineering, the Designing Approach is applied, in which the ideal feature of the object (to-be).
And using creativity ideas and measures are derived to achieve the ideal feature of the object.
The difference between two approaches is shown below.
a) Analytical Approach (IE: Industrial Engineering, QC: Quality Control and Safety Management, too)
<Bad result> → <The cause?> ⇒ <To eliminate the cause?>
Ex) Falling. The handrail was defective. Reinforce the handrail, etc.
b) Designing Approach (Mainstreams of Improvement Techniques; VE is its representative method )
<Bad Result> → <What is “to-be”?> ⇒ <To achieve the purpose?>
Ex1) Falling. A work without danger. Work method with no work at height
Ex2) Falling. No possibility of falling. ⇒ Totally new facility to prevent falling

4.4 Root Cause Analysis - Individual Accident Analysis
As shown in Table 4.1.1, only one fatal accident in this project as the grave accident. The accident differing
from ordinary occupational accident was that a worker went into the sea for heat (inferred) during a break and
was drowned.
The contractor had been conducting safety education, tool box meetings, patrol by watchmen and providing
signs for prohibiting swimming in the construction area and vicinities. As a result of investigation the
authority, the accident was concluded that it had no relation with the project thus it was not an occupational
accident. Immediately after the accident, the contractor conducted cause analysis and made countermeasures
for preventing similar accident. However it must be meaningful to conduct the root cause analysis by the
investigation team with the eyes of the third party.
The purpose of Root Cause Analysis can be described in three points as follows;
(1) To clarify management/organizational factors existing behind the accidents together with the direct causes
by analyzing accidents from various point of view.
(2) To propose recommendations on safety and to prompt all parties concerned in the project to make effort to
prevent occupational accidents by feeding back the result of the study.
(3) To contribute for preventing accident in Japanese ODA construction projects by recommending measures
to solve common safety problems in other similar projects.
4.4.1 Root Cause Analysis of Drowning Accident Occurred on 2014/02/26 (Reference)
1) The Accident
[Outline of the Accident] (Following information is based on the accident report submitted to JICA by the
consultant.)
On 26th February 2014, at about 07:30 a drowning body of Kenyan staff who was an assistant surveyor was
found at the site of placing steel pipe piles for the new container berth.
The incident was dealt as unexpected accident as the case characteristic was low.
[Sequence of Events]
・At 12:30, 25th February, the survey team suspended their works for lunch. The victim also left the site at
about 12:35.
・Work was resumed at 14:00. But the victim neither appeared on the site nor his cellular phone gotten through.
Co-workers looked for him the vicinities but could not find him. As he has done such behaviors once in a
while, they no longer continued searching him.
・Next morning at around 07:30, a staff who came for preparation of work found victim’s drowned body at
Berth 21, Block3. The staff immediately informed of the fact to the police of the site residence.
・At around 07:45, the victim’s folded cloths and ID card were found near the location the body was.
・The victim was wearing only underwear, and there was no external injury on his body recognized.
・Since 14:00 the day before, nobody knew the victim’s whereabouts and also nobody noticed the cloths.

2) Causes and Countermeasures of Accident
In the first accident report submitted by the Contractor, the accident was judged as no case characteristics and
was not an occupational accident.
The followings are the result of study made on the assumption that it was a mere unexpected accident.
<Deliberated Causes>
(1) The victim went into the sea nearby and bathed taking independent action.
(2) He committed a rule violation that it is prohibited to enter the sea unnecessarily at the site of port
construction.
<Countermeasures to Prevent Similar Accident>
(1) Make all concerned with the project observe the project rules thoroughly.
(2) Raise observance awareness of the rules by making unsafe actions in the construction site clear and
enriching safety facilities such as sign boards etc.
(3) Make all workers confirm frequently the existence of risks and importance of safe action and behavior
using the tool box meeting or other occasions.

f) Countermeasures for Management/Organizational Factors (2)
[Permanent countermeasures for the important functions]
In order to prevent similar accident from reoccurring, it is necessary to make countermeasures for
accomplishing the basic function (1st level); “Prevent accident during recess.” as shown in Figure 4.4.1.4
based on the 2nd level functions.
The function tree has a structure that when going down from the second level to the third and the forth, the
expression of function becomes more concrete and it tends to favorable to produce more concrete and realistic
ideas. On the other hand, when going up the levels, the expression becomes more abstract and suitable to
produce unique and creative ideas. It is recommended to create concrete and effective countermeasures to
achieve each function group represented by the second level of function making use of the characteristics of
function levels and producing wide range of ideas. (Figure 4.4.1.5)
The purpose of this report is not producing countermeasures for the specific accident, but providing
viewpoints to improve the safety management in the future project. Thus, the analysis in this report stops at
this point.

Chapter 5 Safety Seminar
The major purposes of this study were to collect the latest information on the legal framework, standards, regulations, etc. for occupational safety and health management in the host country, verify how the safety management was conducted as the construction works were actually done, analyze the causes of accidents, if any, in the construction work, and study how to prevent accidents in the future, and so on. Another purpose of this study was to feed back the results of the study thus conducted to all stakeholders in the construction project in the form of a seminar to help them make further efforts for the prevention of occupational accidents and public disasters in the future. 5.1 Seminar Outline (1) Configuration of the presentations In planning the seminar aimed to help the Project’s construction sites better prevent accidents in the future, we found it most effective for the local parties involved in the construction works if we present specific examples of particular efforts and attention made in Japan to ensure safety on construction sites. Further, we thought that, to make our proposals for the prevention of future accidents really effective, we should look not only at technical aspects (direct causes) of accidents, but also at how the safety management system, or even the project itself, is being run (indirect causes). Thus, in addition to proposals on how to prevent specific types of accidents, we made proposals on how to enhance the project management system itself, if we found rooms for improvements. Based on the above philosophy, we designed the presentations to be given in the field seminar to focus on five subjects:
(i) Presentation of the legal framework for occupational safety and health management in Japan (ii) Presentation of examples of efforts made to prevent accidents on construction sites in Japan. (iii) Presentation of the contents and purposes of the Guidance for the Management of Safety for
Construction Works in Japanese ODA Projects (iv) Results of the survey conducted by the study team on the safety management in the Project’s
construction sites; proposals for measures to be taken (v) Root cause analysis method; examples of application
(2) Participants, language, venue, etc. of the seminar We planned the seminar on the initial assumption that the participants would be 30 to 40 people from the parties concerned in the construction work (the employer, consultant, contractor, subcontractors, etc.). The venue of the seminar was chosen from cities that seemed easily accessible to these participants. In Kenya, we decided to hold the seminar in the city of Mombasa because the study concerned the Mombasa Port Development Project; the Employer (Kenya Port Authority (KPA)) was located in the port of Mombasa, and all parties involved in the construction work naturally operated in the port. As to the venue for the seminar, we used the meeting room of the KPA office, gratefully accepting the offer made by KPA. English was chosen as the language of the seminar and handout materials. Outline of the seminar Date : October 14, 2015, 10:00-11:30 Venue : Meeting Room, KPA office, Port of Mombasa
Attendees: 38 (2 from JICA, 10 from KPA, 2 from DOSHS Mombasa County, 10 from Toyo Construction, 11 from the port development consultant, 1 from other companies, and 2 from the study team (Those from Toyo Construction and port development consultant include those from their affiliates).

5.2 Presentation by the Study Team Shown below are the description of the presentations given by the study team, summarizing the purpose and gist of each one. The presentation materials used in the seminar are attached at the end of this report in Appendix. (1) Section 1 Safety Management Framework - at the National Level and in ODA Projects
(i) Occupational Safety and Health Framework in Japan Gave a general presentation on the occupational safety and health management services provided in Japan, focusing on the administrative framework, management systems, and how they are operated on construction sites, and so on. The presentation specifically covered the following subjects:
・ How the administrative systems for occupational safety and health management are operated by the Health, Labor, and Welfare Ministry and other national and local governments and agencies; what kind of roles the labor standard bureaus and the Labor Standards Act play in it;
・ How laws and regulations on occupational safety and health management are organized, what the provisions of the Occupational Safety and Health Act say;
・ How the number of deaths and injuries on construction sites in Japan has evolved since the 1950s; ・ In Japan, construction contracts are often closed, two-party relationships between the owner and the
contractor, giving the owner strong authorities in the supervision and audit of the construction work; ・ Relationship between the Industrial Safety and Health Act and the Detailed Regulations for
Enforcement of the Act;
・ Roles of the Occupational Safety and Health Management Systems (OSHMS) and the Construction Occupational Safety and Health Management Systems (COHSMS);
5-2
5-3
・ How the COHSMS are operated; ・ How construction works are carried out in Japan; ・ Three major features of the Japanese systems of safety management on construction sites: the
presence of the Industrial Safety and Health Act; site visits by labor standard inspectors; and penalty imposed upon accidents;
・ Examples of safety manuals; safety instructions by work type correspond to provision numbers in the Detailed Regulations for Enforcement of the Occupational Safety and Health Act;
(ii) Occupational Safety and Health Framework in Kenya The framework of occupational safety and health management in Kenya was presented based on the results of a preliminary study in Japan and information collection in the field survey. ・ The result of classification of the ministries and agencies of the Kenyan central government, public
corporations and entities, etc. into those who are entitled to become the owner of a construction work and those who are not;
・ A summary of Kenyan administrative system centered around the Ministry of Labour, Social Security, and Services and other ministries and agencies and the role of the Directorate General of Occupational Safety and Health;
・ The legal system on occupational safety and health management in Kenya, as sorted out;
(iii) Framework of occupational safety and health management in Japan’s ODA projects Gave a presentation on the framework for OSHM in construction works carried out as part of Japanese overseas yen-loan projects. In individual construction works, the top priority is given to compliance with the laws and regulations of the host country. If the host government or owner of the construction work has its own guidelines on OSHM, the construction work is carried out in compliance with those guidelines.
(iv) Guidance for the management of safety for construction works in Japanese ODA projects Gage a presentation on the Guidance for the management of safety for construction works in Japanese ODA projects developed and published by JICA for construction works carried out by Japan as part of its overseas ODA projects. Also gave clarifications to questions that the readers might have regarding how to apply the guidance.
(2) Session 2: Safety Management Methodology in Mombasa Port Development Project
・ The execution system of the construction works (Relationships between the Employer, the Engineer, and the Contractor) for the Mombasa Port Development Project (Phase I);
・ The framework of construction work management (Relationships between E/N and L/A, contractual documents, field drawings, design drawings, and various procedures);
・ Involvement of organizations and other stakeholders of the project (JICA, KPA, DOSHS, NCA, etc.) ・ Classified the safety management activities according to whether they are aimed to ensure (i)
occupational safety or (ii) technical safety, and identified relevant support systems in place and provisions in contractual documents;
・ Compared the Guidance for the Management of Safety for Construction Works in Japanese ODA Projects with the texts and provisions of contractual documents for construction works of the Project;
・ Presented the progress of the construction works and the comparison of safety management activities with accidents and disasters that occurred in the Project,
5-3
5-4
(3) Session 3: Root cause analysis for the issues of Mombasa Port Development Project
・ Presented the outline of root cause analysis and flow of analysis; ・ Explained external environmental factors contributing to the occurrence of accidents and disasters
and individual factors that may constitute such external environmental factors when the analysis is done for the Project;
・ Presented the results of a Why-Why analysis of the Project (grave accidents, analysis of factors that prevented disasters from occurring)
(4) Recommendations
・ Recommendations on how to raise workers' awareness about safety, how to make a safety-driven organization, how to develop and implement a safety plan, how to run safety management activities, how to deploy educational and training activities, and how to ensure worker's employment (looking also to Phase II Project)
・ As a safety-conscious proposal based on the findings made in this study, the team recommends that, for the Phase II Project to better ensure safety in the construction work, the project identify all elements necessary to ensure safety from the initiation stage of project (survey, design, cost calculation, etc.) and, through proposals to the Employer, make necessary provisions included in contractual documents for construction works;
・ Looking to Phase II, expressed the team's opinions about which of the contractual documents (the construction work contract, consultation contract, etc.) may left as they are and which should be improved or revised;

Shown below is the outline of the questions and answers exchanged between the lecturers and the audience at the
seminar.
Question 1 Question Regarding the S curve showing the progress of the project, what are the indicators (data) by
which to measure the progress of a construction work and based on which to study how to improve our OSHM?
Answer The OSHM teams for the project must be organized in the stage of the bidding or start of construction work. In the early stages of construction work, there isn’t much work and generally there aren’t many accidents, so people often think that they’ve already put a good project management system in place. But what will happen if you go into the busiest construction stage like that, with ever increasing workers and various types of work done at the same time and all over the site? Perhaps onsite engineers may handle the situation, but those in charge of OSHM (including the construction company and consultants’ safety officers) will have difficulties properly monitoring and inspecting all types of individual works at the same time. As new workers arrive on the site, the rate of workers having attended OSHM courses goes down and the risk of accident goes up. You have to anticipate such situations and study measures to address these issues from the early stage of the project.
Question 2
Question You said we should adjust the management system as the project progresses, but what I asked you is what are the indicators by which we can measure the progress of a construction work.
Answer That's money. The progress of a construction work is in correlation with the increase in number of workers and machines introduced. You can see how far you’ve come if you keep an eye on expenses incurred.

Question 3
Question You said the DOSHS monitors construction works under a legal mandate, but could you tell me more specifically about that? I mean, how do they monitor accidents and disasters that happen on these sites? This is also a question I’d like to ask to the county safety officers who are present today.
Comments by participant
At the county level, we depend on accident reports from the owner (KPA). If the accident is of any level of gravity requiring the owner’s report, we’ll get them immediately. In addition, each owner has a system of general register on accidents and disasters. Depending on the gravity of the accident, the (DOSHS) county office performs onsite inspections and proposes countermeasures to take.
Answer In the Mombasa Port Development Project, the contractor posted supervisors many more than initially planned on its own initiative. In the Phase II, we should use human resources and budget sharing this experience and include necessary provisions in the contractual documents.
Question 4
Question I have two comments: ・ The first one is about the safety cost. What we saw in the Phase I was thanks to them
putting much money on supervision and developing a proper site management system. In the bidding, labor cost is calculated on an M/M basis, not on an hourly unit cost basis. The above result actually was of the fruit of efforts made at the site level.
・ The second comment I’d like to make is that we should do an analysis of how each project participant benefits from successful OSHM. If they know what kind of OHSM work brings what kind of benefit, they’ll be more motivated, for example, in working overtime.
Answer If laws and regulations are implemented rigorously, contractors have no choice but to comply, so the government should continue enhancing the relevant legislation. Meanwhile, on the site side, too, we should keep making our own efforts to enrich contractual documents. It costs hardly anything to enhance contractual documents used onsite. In this project, for example, to make use of the Phase I experience in the Phase II in the form of specifications for construction works, it doesn’t cost any more than the cost for hiring one more safety officer at the consultant.
Question 5
Question I’d like to hear your opinion about what we can do to improve OSHM in the Phase II. Answer OSHM is an integral part of site management. The engineers educate site workers from
technical and OSHM points of view, independently from safety officers. The guidance safety officers give is limited to OSHM (by definition). The engineers, including the PM, monitor the site operations as a whole from a comprehensive point of view. This is the key to succeeding in site management of this project.
Question 6
Question Does JICA have some OSHM-related guidelines and the like consultants can refer to? Answer Yes, there’s one entitled “Safety Management Guideline” and a couple of other
OSHM-related guidelines and reports. The best reference to that matter, however, is Phase I project.

Chapter 6 Recommendations
6.1 Characteristics of Construction Works in Overseas Projects
It is virtually impossible to prepare a universal and systematic manual for construction management which can
be used repetitively due to the basic features of construction works in ODA projects (i.e. overseas projects).
Hence, in many cases it is necessary to prepare a set of construction management plans for individual projects
taking account of various external factors and finally to take such measures as the occasion demands on site.
Table 6.1.1 Characteristics of Construction Works in Overseas Projects
Characteristics of Construction Works in ODA Projects
Basic Features
# Single Production: Even if the donor, recipient country, employer and project scale are the same, due to the variety of site conditions, the structure and dimensions of the works turn to be unique. # On-Site Production: Since the works are carried out on site, works are often implemented under severe environmental conditions and temporary conditions. Since the project sites are abroad, it is often more difficult than in Japan for the contractor to grasp the site conditions in advance. # Production By-Order: Unlike manufacturers, the construction works start only after getting an order from
the employer in a recipient county. Prior to making the contract, the contractor should agree with the employer on the construction method and cost worked out based on the terms of reference prepared by the employer. Further details of construction method including the organization are determined after the award of the contract.
Influential External Factors
The primary objective of the work is to properly execute the contract between the employer and the contractor, where the contractor tries to maximize the profit under the constraints imposed by various external factors. ① Natural Conditions (topography, geology, weather, hydrology, etc.) ② Social Conditions (local laws & regulations, rights, living environment, markets, transaction, transportation, communication, social facilities, construction resources, labor employment, insurance system, etc.) ③ Technical Conditions (local materials quality/function/standards, construction standards, measurement standards, scientific knowledge on pollution/environment/safety, construction equipment, etc.) ④ Employer Conditions (contract documents, specifications/construction period/cost of works, construction method, equipment/materials, etc.) ⑤ In-house Conditions (organization, rules & regulations, construction experience, preceding work
results, approved policies/plans, etc.)
(Source: prepared by the Consultant with reference to “System & Procedure of Civil Construction Works”)
6.2 Lessons and Recommendations
Considering the characteristics of construction works in ODA projects mentioned above, lessons obtained in
the project are summarized in five categories、such as Local Situation, Planning/Design, Tender/Contract,
Construction, Accident Report.
(1) Local Situation
a. Laws and regulation on occupational safety and health (OSH) are well established in Kenya. However,
6-1
6-2
the OSH regulating body, Directorate of Occupational Safety and Health Services (DOSHS), is working
mainly in the field of the manufacturing industry due to its organization and budget constraints, and the
administrative power of DOSHS on occupational safety and health in the construction industry is limited.
Consequently, management of OSH in construction works should rely on the Employer’s supervision and
the site management framework of each project on a project basis.
On the other hand, National Construction Authority (NCA), established to supervise the construction
industry and coordinate various participants in the industry for its development, is supposed to be the
agency which oversees “safety of works” in construction works. However, being still a new organization,
NCA has not successfully secured its position in the public infrastructure construction management
framework, and is mainly dealing with private building works which are more exposed to the public.
Consequently, management of safety of works in construction works should also rely on the Employer’s
supervision and the site management framework of each project on a project basis.
Table 6.2.1 Upstream Management of Safety in Construction Projects(Source: Study Team)
In short, it appears that in reality the binding effect of the act on occupational safety and health is weak,
and consequently, safety in construction works should rely on the site management framework of each
project.
With regard to the safety management in construction works, it is necessary to have not only a
contractual framework project by project, but also a national legislative framework like the occupational
safety & health law in Japan. Moreover, it is recommended to make the occupational safety & health law
consistent with the construction and the tender laws compatible to enhance the effectiveness of the laws.
There are a number of occupational safety and health management system, such as an internationally well
recognized OHSAS18001, COHSMS (Construction Occupational Health and Safety management
System) tailor-made for contractors in Japan, and “the Guidance for the Management of Safety for
Construction Works in Japanese ODA Projects” prepared by JICA. It is recommended that the relevant
agencies make use of these systems to supplement the national legislative framework and contractual
framework, as/if necessary, getting assistance from ODA donors.
b. The infrastructure market is rapidly developing in Kenya, and both the quality and the quantity of local
contractors and skilled workers are having difficulties to catch up. Hence, for special works, foreign

contractors should employ foreign subcontractors, and for general works, execute the works on a trial &
error basis to suit the situation surrounding the project.
Since the further economic development is expected in Kenya, which will lead to more construction
demands, it is recommended to enhance the capacity of human resources in the construction industry. It is
recommended that donors form ODA construction projects as well as capacity development projects
strategically with a view to providing opportunities for local authorities and contractors continuously/
systematically train local contractors and workers.
c. In the safety management of this project, the security of project staffs has been cared equally with the
safety management of construction works. Unfortunately, since enhancement of security for the project
was conducted after the commencement of works, it increased the Contractor’s burden more than
expected.
In Mombasa region, a number of large-scaled projects are being prepared, such as Mombasa Port
Development Project Phase 2, Mombasa Port Area Road Development Project、Mombasa Port Gate
Bridge Project, and Mombasa Economic Zone Development Project. In the project formation of those
projects, it is recommended to design a more contractor-friendly framework based on discussions on the
security issue with Kenyan Government and each project owner referring to the data/experience gained in
this project (Mombasa Port Development Project Phase 1).
(2) Planning/Design
a. In the planning/design of future ODA projects at Mombasa region, it is recommended to incorporate into
the project framework adequate measures to cope with the procurement and security problems as
encountered in this project to provide a better safety environment to the contractors. Recent occupational
safety and health acts and KPA’s safety, health and environment management regulations are to be
incorporated into the contract documents for Mombasa Port Development Project Phase 2.

6-4
b. Usually safety and quality management is perceived to be a matter for which the contractor is primarily
responsible. In ODA construction projects, in addition, actions taken by the employer, the donor and the
consultant supporting them at the upstream side are equally important.
At the stage of project planning/design, the employer, the donor and the consultant shall foresee/overlook
the situation where the project will be placed during construction together with the risks accompanied to
prepare a suitable framework and contract documents to deal with those risks, after which they shall
entrust the construction works to the contractor. This approach could make the external environment of
the construction in order, and lead to smooth implementation of works as well as promotion of safety.
At the planning/design stage of Yen loan projects, the Employers/JICA/consultants are encouraged to
refer to “Guidance for the Management of Safety for Construction Works in Japanese ODA Projects”
which provides standard safety management conditions. The Guidance could be useful reference for the
Employers/JICA/consultants who are not very familiar to the site practice rather than for contractors who
has sufficient experience on overseas construction projects.
It is recommended that the consultant at the project formation stage develop “a list of points to be
included at the design stage concerning safety management requirements”, and thereafter the design
consultant, in consultation with the Employer, to build such points in the design documents.

(3) Tender/Contract
a. There is no detailed/concrete description is provided on the Consultant’s role on safety management in
the consultancy contract. The budget and organization for safety management was prepared on that
basis. Ideally the construction contract documents and/or specifications prepared by the Consultant’s
design team should have described in detail the role of the Consultant’s construction supervision team.
However, maybe due to the predetermined budget constraints, it was not the case, and consequently a
sufficient number of personnel was not assigned to safety management works.
It is recommended that the Consultant contract in Mombasa Port Development Project Phase 2 make
the scope of works, organization and budget consistent getting feedback from the lessons gained in
Phase 1.
b. In interviews with project staffs, it was heard that the construction contract of the project contain certain
ambiguities in conditions of contract, specifications and BOQs.
It was learnt that the Consultant in charge of design and construction supervision of Phase 2 will be the
same as the one in Phase 1. It is recommended to take adequate measures not only to the problems
stated in (2), but also to the above contract documentation problems.
(4) Construction
<Re. Consultant>
a. It was observed that the presence of the Consultant was not much noticeable in the project safety
management system in terms of occupational safety and health, safety of works and security. Taking
account of the Consultant’s confirmation in the interview that its position as the Engineer’s
Representative (the Employer is the Engineer) does not affect his performance of works at all, such low
presence could be attributable to the terms of reference, organization and/or budget. Suitable arrangement
in Phase 2 is recommended.
<Re. Contractor>
a. Digging further the analysis results presented in Article 4.3 (2) of Chapter 4, it could be inferred that the
following 3 external environmental factors have contributed to the outstanding result in safety
management in this project, despite its large-scale with a contract value of more than JPY 20 billion and a
long contract period of 4 years,
① Of the construction period the first half was spent mainly for offshore (marine) works and the
second works for onshore works. Since local staffs are unable to handle marine works, those works
were handled by Japanese/Filipino staffs directly employed and some other staffs from Singapore.
Few accidents occurred during such period.
② In the onshore works, the Contractor could not help implementing the works directly supervising
workers due to local subcontractors’ low capability. Moreover, since most of workers were
inexperienced, the Contractor could not help supervising/training/monitoring workers very closely
every day on site. This arrangement generated a system which enables experienced
Japanese/Filipino staffs to keep their eyes on workers on safety as well.
6-5
6-6
③ To cope with the highly alarmed security problem, the work area had to be totally enclosed by
fence and provided with intensive guard in the area and at the gate. Secondary effects gained by
such arrangement were prevention of intrusion of outsiders, prevention of workers’ unfavorable
behavior, disciplined traffic management in the area, etc., which contributed to the safety
management of work area. In other words, the work area of this project was “fully under control by
a Japanese contractor”.
To be pessimistic, in future projects to be implemented in the same region, there is no assurance of
repeatability of the causes & effects relationship concerning the above factors, since the achievement of
safety in this project is highly dependent on personal efforts made by construction staffs daily. It is
particularly true in ② above.
This is the issue to be carefully studied in the planning/design of future projects to provide reasonable
solutions in the bidding.
(5) Accident Report
a. It was learnt that at the starting of the project the accident reporting procedure (to the Employer, to JICA)
including the threshold of reportable accidents was not fully notified/confirmed by the Consultant, and
three and a half years of time elapsed until the Study Team visited the project. Consequently, the project
stakeholders missed opportunities to share the 37 accident/incident reports (19 occupational & 18
equipment) in a timely fashion, though most of them are in minor nature fortunately. Improvement in
Phase 2 is recommended.
b. <Accident Cause Analysis and Laws/Regulations>
In ordinary ODA projects,
- capability of the main players of the project is confirmed in the process of project development; the
Employer’s capability through the project formation process and the Consultant’s /the Contractor’s
through the PQ/tender process.
- FIDIC standard conditions of contract has a provision that local laws/regulations are to be abided by.
Consequently, the daily safety management system of ordinary ODA projects is supposed to be a system
where local laws/regulations are built in the conditions of contract and/or the contractor’s various plans.
In the system, in other words, any insufficiencies/inadequacies in the local laws/regulations concerning
construction safety management are to be supplemented/corrected in the construction contract prepared
by the Employer/Consultant, further improved in various plans prepared by the Contractor and thereafter
adjusted during the implementation by the Contract finally to ensure the final/overall satisfaction.
This safety management system could be working within the framework of ODA project contract/
construction management without involvement of government officers of relevant agencies.
Under such circumstances, Why-Why analyses of construction accidents could not pick up administrative
problems at the national level alone, but does pick up those problems in the combined system including
the site factors such as the conditions of contract and the contractor’s plans, while a Why-Why analysis
conducted to “insufficiencies/inadequacies of safety management provisions in the contract documents”,
could derive administrative problems at the national level.
