title: [Training and information in construction in Italy].
abstract: The formation and the information are at the base of the prevention of the accidents and the professional illnesses: this principle is very present in all the European directives that consider the problems regarding safety and health in the places of job, from the mother directive (take in together to other important European milestone with our legislative decree 626/94) to the building site directive and to the machine directive. Focusing the attention on the sector of the constructions, it appears immediate to think about the formation and the information addressed to the workers, that is, to those people that realize the work in first person and that could be object to accidents and job illnesses. Correctly the building site directive (and the correspondent legislative decree 494/96) involve other people of the productive process who, with their choices, their behaviors, their awareness--and therefore their formation--strongly influence the safety conditions: it deals with the coordinators in planning and in executive phase that offer, through their competence, support to the safety during the whole productive process with specific professionalisms (from the planning to the execution, from the maintenance to the demolition), with the person responsible of the firm that has to have the abilities in the job organization and in the formation of his own employees, with the buyer that, extraneous up to the 494/96 emanation to the technical-productive problem list, has to create the fittest conditions to build, to manage and maintain the work under safety conditions.
