Yesterday Green Point stadium received the thumbs up by the Department of Labour after its first comprehensive safety inspection of the construction site.

The construction of Green Point Stadium is going ahead in full swing after a labour dispute that lasted for two days.

“We are very pleased with the outcome of the inspection. It vindicates our confidence in the contractor.

We have always regarded work safety on site as very important. Safe operating procedures are ingrained in site operations to make this project a success,” says Service Delivery Integration Director, Mike Marsden.

The dispute about transport allowances has not been settled entirely yet but a process including a dispute resolution mechanism was agreed upon and work is going ahead full steam
