The construction industry’s complexity and high-risk nature present significant decision-making challenges, often resulting in errors that jeopardise health safety performance. Cognitive biases can further distort risk assessments influence decision-making, ultimately affecting behaviours outcomes. Although numerous studies have explored cognitive construction, there remains a lack of comprehensive understanding regarding how these interact with key decision factors related to safety. This study aimed advance sustainable practices within the industry by examining consequences interplay essential through systematic literature review. Two hundred eighty-three articles published between 2018 2024 were analysed, forty-five selected for inclusion. network analysis findings identify factors, reinforcing loops, critical paths affect performance, illustrating perception, complexity, workplace behaviours. insights gained from this highlight challenges potential improvement. They serve as foundation researchers, professionals, policymakers develop targeted interventions mitigate biases, enhance strengthen frameworks, improving performance sector.
