“…"Pointing and Calling" is a typical example of a human error countermeasure, performed by workers at a construction site. The effects of Pointing and Calling outside of the construction industry have been confirmed in the literature (Kiyomiya, Ikeda, Tomita, 1965; Japan International Center for Occupational Safety and Health, 1999; Kasahara, Shimazaki, Ishida, et al, 2013). Figure 4 shows the general flow of Pointing and Calling.…”

“…Figure 4 shows the general flow of Pointing and Calling. In dangerous workplaces, Pointing and Calling is conducted as a risk prediction activity (Kiyomiya, Ikeda, Tomita, 1965; Japan International Center for Occupational Safety and Health, 1999; Kasahara, Shimazaki, Ishida, et al, 2013). This is an act of calling out while pointing and checking for safety and may be performed alone or as a group.…”

In Japan, “Pointing and Calling” is a known safety management method to prevent mistakes and ensure safety. This study constructed a new check system, “Verification Meeting/ Simple Verification Meeting,” that is based on the Pointing and Calling system and aims to prevent incorrect cost estimates for public works projects. It also contributes to improved staff morale and professional development. The new check system has five novel items compared with conventional cost estimation verification methods. The proposed system was put into actual use in Japan, during which time necessary improvements were made. As a result, there were no mistakes in cost estimation for about three years at the Port and Harbor Bureau of a certain city in Japan where the first author of this study worked. The system was further refined and could be adapted for use by all local governments, including those with few staff members.
