The construction industry is one of the sectors where accidents causing injuries among workers appear more frequently than in other industries. The safety issues are of high interest. There are special regulations introduced to protect all people engaged on a construction site. Besides the human attitude, every accident causes forced brakes in the construction process. It leads to financial losses and lowering the trademark of a certain contractor. Curing process of injured workers, as well as, investigation about for reasons of an accident generates additional cost. The development of accidents prevention then is highly desirable for several reasons. As wearable technologies become more popular and affordable, they can be applied to monitor the locations of machinery and the staff on the construction site. Based on that risky configurations can be detected, and relevant actions can be undertaken to protect working people from any injuries. Different types of wearable technologies are presented together with the discussion of their applicability in monitoring in the construction sector. Moreover, the survey is done to better recognition of health risks. Based on that the recommendations are formulated for future applications of wearable technologies as an innovative tool of risk management in construction.

建造业是造成工人受伤事故较其他行业更频繁发生的行业之一。安全问题备受关注。引入了特殊规定来保护所有在建筑工地上工作的人。除了人的态度，每一次事故都会导致施工过程中的强制刹车。这会导致经济损失并降低某个承包商的商标。受伤工人的治疗过程以及事故原因调查会产生额外的成本。出于多种原因，非常需要开发事故预防。随着可穿戴技术变得越来越流行和负担得起，它们可以用于监控施工现场的机器和工作人员的位置。基于此，可以检测到有风险的配置，并可以采取相关措施来保护工作人员免受任何伤害。介绍了不同类型的可穿戴技术，并讨论了它们在建筑行业监测中的适用性。此外，进行调查是为了更好地识别健康风险。在此基础上，为可穿戴技术作为建筑风险管理的创新工具的未来应用制定了建议。
