The National Union of
Mineworkers in the Western Caper said it is shocked and disgusted at the death
of a workers at a construction site in Pinelands.
NUM Provincial regional
Secretary Happiness Holiday said one death is too man and construction
companies need to make sure that health and safety structures are functioning
at their workplaces.
Holiday added that our dismay
to the companies is that they do not involve us in the investigation of those
fatalities.
“Now as the stakeholder we are
recognised as the union, in terms of the membership, they do not involve us in
the investigation, we believe that that they could be something they are
hiding.
Our worry is that these
incidents are not reported to the Labour Department for them to be captured.”
Holiday said.
