Episode Details

The Department of Labour is hitting hard on unsafe construction sites across western New Providence, shutting down four locations in two weeks for serious violations — from missing safety gear to unmarked forklifts and no fire extinguishers. This isn’t just about fines — inspectors pulled workers off dangerous sites — following deadly accidents including a young worker falling from a roof and an excavator crushed by rubble. With safety laws now backed by real consequences, employers must report every accident to the Occupational Safety and Health Unit. The department is expanding its team to 30 inspectors by year’s end, determined to turn safety from an afterthought into a non-negotiable standard — because lives depend on it.
