Abstract

Green construction can mitigate the dangers associated with increasing urbanisation, emissions, and energy consumption, while minimising disruption and enhancing the functionality of local, regional, and global ecosystems. As a result, the government has prioritised green procurement and green building construction. Therefore, it is crucial to effectively manage the risks involved in implementing green construction projects. The aim of this research is to minimise the risks associated with green building construction, thereby increasing industry stakeholders' willingness to adopt green construction practices in Sarawak. However, green building construction entails greater risks, complexity, and uniqueness. The field of risk management lacks active and efficient approaches to evaluate these risks, and research on risk response is limited. Furthermore, there is currently no specific risk management framework tailored for green building construction projects. To address these gaps, this research conducted semi-structured interviews with a minimum of 12 interviewees, including project managers, site engineers, site safety supervisors, and site quantity surveyors selected from four green building construction projects in Sarawak. The development of the risk management framework was guided by four objectives: (1) identifying the types of risks in green building construction within Sarawak's construction industry, (2) analysing the likelihood, impact, and evaluation of risks in green building construction within Sarawak's construction industry, (3) determining risk responses in green building construction within Sarawak's construction industry, and (4) developing the risk management framework for green building construction within Sarawak's construction industry. The methodology employed for this research involved qualitative methods, specifically semi-structured interviews with open-ended questions. The data gathered through this approach were analysed using content analysis with the assistance of NVivo�9. This study contributes four risk management frameworks based on four different types of green projects, aiming to facilitate stakeholders in being more attentive to the types of risks and mitigating them in green construction. However, it should be noted that the study does face certain limitations in terms of risk management, particularly regarding the relationship between theoretical risk responses and their actual adoption in practice
