MARK YOUR CALENDARS!

The Ministry of Labour (MOL) has announced its inspection blitz schedule for 2016/17.  Workplace injuries and fatalities can usually be traced to a few root causes.  Occupational health and safety inspectors conduct proactive blitzes on sector-specific hazards which also raises awareness and increases compliance with the Occupational Health and Safety Association.

Reports from previous year blitzes are available on the MOL website.  Construction sector blitz dates are noted below.
