The construction industry is characterized as an important source of investment and high labor absorption. However, limited standardization of work associated with frequent improvisation and timing of decision making in this activity has generated a number of injuries incompatible with other productive activities in Brazil. This perverse environment led to the establishment in Brazil, in the 1970's, of mandatory Professional Security Experts to mitigate the damages resulting from accidents. The authors identified 21 articles in line with the topic of interest. Then, through bibliometric analysis, this portfolio showed that: 1. The most relevant publication was the Journal of Construction Engineering and Management, although not the highest impact factor. 2. The article Mohamed S (2003) Scorecard approach to benchmarking organizational safety culture in construction J. Constr. Eng. Manag. 129: 80-88 showed the highest scientific recognition. 3. The authors Fang and Hinze were highlighted in the portfolio and its references, respectively. 4. The most frequent keywords found were \"security\" and \"construction industry\" and \"construction.\"
