  • Wednesday, 24 Apr 2019

WE refer to the letter “Privatisation a good option” (The Star, April 5) in which the writer proposed the privatisation of the enforcement functions of agencies under the Human Resources Ministry, including the Department of Safety and Health (DOSH).

While we at DOSHtech (association of former staff of DOSH) laud the idea, an in-depth study and careful deliberation on its practicability must be carried out by the stakeholders concerned.
