Qatar urges construction firms to submit safety plans
- Qatar: Sunday, April 07 - 2013 at 03:56
The Qatari labour ministry has asked all construction firms in the country to update the ministry with their safety plans and requirements every six months to avoid hazards and penalties, Gulf Times has reported. "We are asking company heads to update us with a copy of their safety plans which include staff training courses to make sure workers are protecting themselves and their environments by using safe procedures, as well as job hazard analysis, in full detail so that we can approve their practices for utmost safety," said the manager of the Labour Inspection Department (LID) at the ministry, Khaled al-Ghanem. "Company safety plans submitted to the ministry by contractors or consultants must also include job hazard analysis or risk assessment so workers know the risks they are taking in their jobs so they can be more cautious," he said.
