Muling pinaalalahan ni Department of Labor and Employment (DoLE) Secretary Rosalinda Baldoz ang mga employer hinggil sa kahalagahan ng kaligtasan at kalusugan ng kanilang mga manggagawa.
“Accident investigations have proven that non-compliance with existing rules and standards under the Labor Code and the Occupational Safety and Health Standards (OSHS) significantly contribute to unfortunate occurrences resulting in threats either to the life or limbs of workers,” pahayag ng kalihim.
Inamin ni Baldoz na walang batas na nagpaparusa sa mga employer na hindi sumusunod sa OSHS, kaya patuloy na nangyayari ang “work-related accidents and deaths” sa trabaho. (Mina Navarro)
