• Abstract:

  The construction projects are unique because they have a special place on earth. Each construction project is determined by the quality of the work, the price and the deadline of the project. Each construction project is a determined system. If one part of the system fails, the investor suffers a loss that affects the other systems (e.g. sales, bank loans, etc.). There are several possibilities between the starting point (entry into the system) and the end point (exit from the system) of the construction project. They are reflected in the economic, technical or human resources. Each reflected factor includes different causes. These factors/causes can transform the determinate system into a stochastic system. We speak here of uncertainties. Uncertainties arise from the unsystematic treatment of the construction project, but must be eliminated so that the project is as determinate as possible. Numerous studies on the impact on the performance of contractors in the realization of construction projects (cited in this paper) highlight in particular the impact of human resources. According to some studies, it is the labor force on the construction site that has the greatest impact, according to others, it is the competences/skills/actions of management (especially the management of the construction site - providing the necessary materials and tools, supervising workers and communicating with them, motivating them, creating safe working conditions, etc.) / Problems with human resources are the likelihood of external (labor shortages) and internal mechanisms (skills, languages, motivation) that change the system and lead to changes in the execution phase and subsequent phases. In this paper, we analyze the factors of human resources and the problems that arise from them in construction projects. We propose a new solution/model for the provision of human resources and productivity management.
