This research aims to systematically compare construction safety management approaches between Industry 4.0 and Industry 5.0.
Conducted a systematic literature review of 191 articles.
Utilized bibliometric and content analysis methods.
Generated a conceptual framework for future technology adoption.
Industry 5.0 redefines technology's role in safety management, focusing on human support.
Shift from Safety-I (failure prevention) to Safety-II (resilience and performance) is notable but incomplete.
Barriers include limited model generalizability and challenges in human-robot collaboration.

Zou et al. (2026) studied this question.
