Safety standards not observed on building site

Dear Editor,

As we observe World Occupational Health and Safety Day would the authorities have a focused look at the conditions that obtain on the construction site located at the corner of Sheriff and Garnett Streets? On several occasions, young workers dangling from the steel frame without any safety gear have been observed. As we mimic the architecture of other societies it would be more than useful if we also mimic their safety standards.

Would our fire trucks be able to deliver water to the upper flats of one of these buildings in the event of a conflagration?

Yours faithfully,
John Cromwell
