Construction projects are implemented in several stages and have many potential risks.

In this study, the author surveyed construction contractors about their knowledge and attitudes towards risks in the construction industry and the risk management process that has been and is being applied in practice. Depending on the job position of the surveyor, the response results will reflect their occupational factors when managing risk. Construction consultants tend to attach importance to the closing phase of a project, while managers consider the planning and organizing and implementation stages to be more important because those stages are often riskier. In addition, when dealing with actual risks, the evaluation contractors prioritize the use of risk response techniques such as risk transfer, risk avoidance, and risk reduction. The option to accept the risk is not prioritized by the contractors.
