The family of the late Seon Scott says that he never received any kind of formal training from the Guyana Power and Light Company (GPL) or the private contractor he was working for at the time he was fatally burnt by a livewire last month.
Scott, 19, had sustained severe electrical burns after being struck by a live wire during a job at Bath Settle-ment, West Coast Berbice on February. He succumbed a week later in the Intensive Care Unit of the Georgetown Public Hospital (GPH).
GPL Chief Executive Offi-cer (CEO) Bharat Dindyal had told Stabroek News that all of the company’s technical employees, as well as those of sub-contractors it utilises, are adequately trained to carry out their responsibilities.
