Abstract
The aim of this study is to develop elements for assessing safety management capability of construction clients. To this end, it is investigated theoretical concepts of the organizational safety management and successful construction management factors of construction clients. From which, the elements appropriate to assess the safety management capability of the construction clients are proposed. Questionnaire survey targeting construction safety management experts have been carried out to adjust the proposed model more eligible for field application. Finally, relative importance of each element is analyzed using analytic hierarchy process method. The developed model elements are expected to use effectively for assessment of the safety management capability of the clients.
