When they fail to report within that period of time given in the Act, we prosecute them,” Dexter Semple, a Labour and Occupational Safety and Health Officer told media operatives.Employers are usually prosecuted in the lower courts (the Magistrates’ Court) and could be made to pay a fine of $50,000 or may be ordered to serve up to three months in prison for failing to report workplace accidents.Asked by this newspaper if such a penalty suffices, the official said that the Ministry is currently reviewing the Law and will be pushing for amendments. “It will be reviewed very soon and changed to a greater fine and greater imprisonment time.”“The occurrence of accidents is too great for us to continue along this path.
