In the construction sector, there is a high risk for accidents, injuries, and fatalities, particularly for migrant workers who comprise a large proportion of the workforce. This article presents a systematic literature review of current safety training provision for migrant construction workers. In the interests of rigor, we draw on the learning, training transfer, and training effectiveness literatures, exploring not only the extent to which training brings about the intended outcomes, in terms of enhanced safety behaviors, and reduced accidents and injuries, but also the factors that influence learning and transfer of training back to the working environment. The literature search revealed only 18 peer-reviewed articles have been published since 2000, which is particularly surprising, given the disproportionate accident and fatality rates for migrant workers. Consequently, we propose a research agenda to enhance safety training for low skilled, migrant and native construction workers, drawing on cognitive and social constructivist instructional design models, which view training as a dynamic process involving active participation of trainees. We advocate the importance of attending to the situational context in which workers are embedded, including labor market conditions, social relations, and cultural differences. Finally, we propose the need for further longitudinal, multidimensional research to evaluate the impact of safety training on learning, transfer of training, and individual- and organizational-level outcomes, such as behavior change, and accident and fatality rates.

在建筑行业，事故、伤害和死亡的风险很高，特别是对于构成劳动力大部分的农民工来说。本文对当前农民工安全培训的现状进行了系统的文献回顾。为了严谨起见，我们借鉴了学习、培训迁移和培训效果的文献，不仅探讨了培训在多大程度上带来了预期的结果，如增强安全行为、减少事故和伤害，还探讨了影响学习和培训迁移到工作环境的因素。文献检索仅发现自 2000 年以来发表了 18 篇同行评议的文章，这特别令人惊讶，因为农民工的事故和死亡率不成比例。因此，我们提出了一个研究议程，以加强低技能、移民和本地建筑工人的安全培训，借鉴认知和社会建构主义教学设计模型，将培训视为一个涉及学员积极参与的动态过程。我们主张重视工人所处的情境背景，包括劳动力市场条件、社会关系和文化差异。最后，我们建议需要进行进一步的纵向、多维研究，以评估安全培训对学习、培训迁移以及个人和组织层面结果（如行为改变和事故死亡率）的影响。（PsycInfo 数据库记录（c）2020 APA，保留所有权利）。
