2022 heightened safety: mandatory time-out and accountability

MOM publication date:

What the release reports

A six-month heightened safety period begins in September 2022. Companies must conduct a safety time-out between 1 and 15 September, with duration appropriate to their risks.

Details and conditions

Failure to complete the review can bring one-month foreign-hiring debarment. Serious lapses after major or fatal accidents can bring up to three months’ debarment and personal CEO accountability.

Context and follow-up

StartSAFE expands SME support; public construction tender criteria and demerit rules tighten from October. The source checklist supports risk reviews. Unlike later voluntary initiatives, the specified September 2022 time-out was mandatory.
