Towards better work safety


THE recent fatal accident at the MRT construction site as well as other workplace accidents over the years clearly indicate that more needs to be done to promote and implement good Occupational Safety and Health (OSH) practices.

Although Malaysia’s industrial accident rate had been reduced to 36% over the past 10 years (2003-2013), the remaining challenge would be to build and foster an OSH culture and strive towards an accident-free workplace environment.
