Committee of Supply 2024 debate, Day 4: Melvin Yong on workplace safety and health
The annual workplace fatality rate has dropped to 0.99 per 100,000 workers in 2023, five years ahead of the workplace safety and health (WSH) 2028 goal. How does the Ministry of Manpower (MOM) intend to build on this positive trend to ensure safer and healthier workplaces moving forward? How are the respective sectors doing in terms of major workplace injuries? MP Melvin Yong raised these questions in Parliament on Monday (Mar 4). He also reiterated his call for there to be a mandatory WSH representative in every company regardless of size and industry.
