The Commissioner disclosed that his department was now working
on further safety regulations and was planning further intensive courses at its Industrial Safety Training Centre in the Canton Road Government Offices.
He reiterated his appeal to industry to participate fully in the promotion of industrial safety. "It is everybody's business to prevent accidents from happening," he said, "but work safety will not be achievod until workers and employers cultivate a much greater sense of safety awareness.
"Employers have the responsibility of drawing up safety policies
and providing safe working conditions; foremen and supervisors are responible for ensuring safe work methods; and workers have an obligation to work safely both for their own good and for the good of their families and of their foll or workers."
Kr. Price urged employers, foremen and supervisors to take advantage of the free advisory service and training facilities available at the Industrial Safety Training Centre, which can be contacted by ringing 3-664270 or
3-661438.
