Minister for Manpower Award
Keeping our workers safe has always been one of our top priorities. The WSH (Design for Safety) (DfS) Regulations were mandated to improve WSH performance in the construction industry by encouraging greater industry ownership amongst Developers and Designers to manage WSH risks at the design and planning phase of the project.
Given the impact DfS will have across the entire value chain of the construction industry, the Design for Safety Taskforce, which was co-chairedby MOM and BCA, conducted extensive focus group discussions, industry consultations and public feedback to ensure that the WSH (DfS) Regulations are effective and relevant.
