Psychosocial risks are all those working conditions that have the capacity to affect the day-to-day life of workers, as well as the development of their work, whether on a physical, psychological or social level. In the construction sector, despite the high rate of sick leave, there are no studies that
evaluate, analyze and propose good practices for this type of risk, and more specifically for the risks that affect the work teams of construction companies.
This article summarizes part of the results of a research project whose objective was to carry out an analysis of the good practices that are commonly used in the industry to avoid these risks, and to select the most appropriate and priority ones to implement in the construction teams of construction companies.

The conclusions of the research were that the most appropriate and feasible good practices to implement in site teams and avoid the most recurrent risks are: Implementing clear and defined procedures, so that workers know how they have to carry out their tasks; Clearly and simply defining the functions, competencies and tasks that have to be carried out in each job that makes up the work teams; Welcome plan for new employees; Improving and implementing communication channels and a conflict management channel and humanizing organizations, with people-oriented leadership.
