Works minister: 1,142 construction sites in operation since June 1, 209 violated SOPs

KUALA LUMPUR, July 23 ― A total of 933 of the 1,142 construction sites that are in operation nationwide since implementation of movement control under the National Recovery Plan last June 1 complied with the stipulated standard operating procedures , said Works Minister Datuk Seri Fadillah Yusof.

“Of the total construction sites in operation, 209 of them did not comply with the SOPs and were ordered to close, and the reason being that they did not have the letter of permission to operate from the Ministry of International Trade and Industry and also the local authorities,” he told reporters after visiting a few construction sites in the federal capital today.

Commenting on his visit to the construction site at Jalan Bukit Bintang and Jalan Yap Kwan Seng today, Fadillah said supervisors should be appointed to monitor workers’ compliance with the SOP and also to ensure cleanliness of the construction site to avoid the spread of Covid-19 and other diseases. Meanwhile, Fadillah said his ministry hoped to expedite the Construction Industry Vaccination Programme to reduce the risk of critical Covid-19 cases.
