Abstract: Abstract The increasing complexity and dynamics of construction projects have plagued the construction industry with substantial hazards and losses. Government regulatory departments as the external constraint forces, has been recognized critical for construction safety. This article presents an evolutionary game model of safety supervision to analyze the dynamic evolution tendency and stability of replicator dynamic equation. The results demonstrate that the stable state of construction safety supervision is related to certain key factors, e.g. cost of regulatory procedures, probability of accidents, lost of construction enterprise resulted from accident, penalty strength and cost of safety supervision. To improve safety level of construction enterprises, it is necessary to introduce an appropriate external supervision and restraint mechanism enhancing both sides to control the security risk. Finally, some policy suggestions on construction safety supervising are proposed based on above analyses.
