About the CSRP

The Construction Safety Research Partnership (CSRP) is a community of organizations working together to investigate and develop new ideas and resources for improving occupational safety and health (OSH) in the architecture/engineering/construction (AEC) industry. The CSRP provides an opportunity for AEC industry organizations to leverage their collective knowledge and resources to collaboratively solve problems and explore new ideas for improving safety and health in the AEC industry.

The CSRP is designed to focus on the science of safety and lead innovative and collaborative research on topics related to safety in the AEC industry. The CSRP additionally aims to: (1) generate interest in safety and health from a wide spectrum of the industry; (2) promote and facilitate active involvement of AEC industry organizations to improve safety performance in the industry; and (3) support OSU as a leader in construction worker safety and health research and education.
