Over the last decade, work-related crime has become an increasing problem in Norway. An increase in labour immigrants, as well as complicated regulations, makes it possible for criminal actors to operate in the labour market. Airport developments are often characterized as large and complex projects with a high security level and many different actors. This study examines the measures to counteract work-related crime in two airport developments in Norway. A literature study regarding work-related crime in the construction industry, 20 semi-structured in-depth interviews and a content analysis of case specific documentation were conducted. Most of the interviews were case specific with representatives working in project management, quality management, HSE or as Trade Union coordinators. Interviews with government officials, regarding work-related crime were also conducted. The research shows that in both cases studied, measures for counteracting work-related crime have been implemented. The study shows that it is important to have countermeasures in all phases of a project. Few studies have been conducted on measures to counteract work-related crime. This study provides a valuable assessment of implemented measures used to counteracting work-related crime in the context of airport developments.
