Exceeding the time limit of works implementation specifi ed in the contract is a common problem in the construction industry and is signifi cant for both the investor and the contractor. As shown by studies conducted in developed and developing countries, delays in construction works are a common and frequently recurring problem in the implementation of construction projects (Toor & Ogunlana, 2008). For the investor, a delay may mean the inability to obtain benefi ts of the investments at the scheduled time, and in special situations, it may turn a profi table venture into an unviable project. For the contractor, this may mean higher than planned costs of works. In extreme cases this can lead to a situation in which, instead of planned profi t, the contractor incurs losses. The provisions of the agreement between the investor and the contractor decide which party is going to be responsible for delays. On these grounds, the way the risks related to the implementation of construction works are distributed between the parties is established. Early identifi cation and the subsequent limitation or even elimination or the potential reasons for such delays may contribute to the effi cient and punctual project completion. The paper presents the results of research dealing with building contractors in Poland and Slovakia. The aim of the research was the identifi cation and rating the signifi cance of factors that may generate delays in construction works in both countries.
