Mr. Tsui said it was not possible to state how many employers and
employees were reached by the activities of the Industrial Safety Training
Centre.
"Of those attending course, some came from large factories, others
from small ones. Some supervisors on completion of their training will have
applied their newly acquired knowledge to many workers. Others will have
done nothing."
The Commissioner of Labour pointed out that although carelessness
by workers causes many accidents, many employers remain regrettably apathetic
to accident prevention.
"Many employers seem to consider that industrial safety is not their
concern but solely that of Government, This, of course, is not so. Accident
prevention should be an integral part of good management," he said,
He told the Council that his department would continue to do all
it could to extend the influence of these procedures for the benefit of
workmen and employers alike.
