Abstract
There is usually a large number of construction workers working on megaprojects. And the dormitories are the dense population areas which are also temporary facilities. So the owner company should pay more attention to situation that could cause injuries or instabilities of society, such as fire hazards (fire in dormitories), safety issue (collapse of dormitories), security issue (theft, fighting and chaos after drinking), and labor relations issue (troubles caused by back pay). There could be environmental issues in dormitories. If those issues cannot be resolved in time, constructions workers may complain dormitory management; also there could be negative impact to the environment o dormitory and neighborhood.
