I would like to take this opportunity to urge the Government to strengthen its publicity and education on industrial safety in order to make both employers and employees realise that they are primarily responsible for industrial safety. The message which should get across is that both employers and employees should be equally conscious and responsible. It is the responsibility of the employers to provide a safe working environment and it is the duty of the workers to use protective equipment provided by the employers. Having said this, I must stress that prosecution should not be limited to employers alone. Though tighter safety regulations and enforcement cost money, in the end, fewer injuries and losses mean substantial saving for the community as a
whole!

In comparison with the average_wastage

per cent, rate in Civil Service, which is about 3 the wastage rate of doctors in public hospitals is significantly higher. [Some people tend to think that as long as there is no recruitment difficulty, vacancies can be easily filled, this is entirely true if all the vacancies are junior posts. However, many of the current 350 vacancies in public sector are senior posts. [One thing we should bear in mind is that it is very difficult to replace like with like in this area. A post left vacant by an experienced doctor may remain vacant for
