If construction companies are found to have violated a safety requirement then the amount they are fined should be a lot higher than the pitiful amounts they are currently fined. Doubled for a repeat offense Also by holding the company directors and upper management personally accountable with the threat of jail time for willful negligence, this would show remarkable improvement in safety. The enforcers of the construction site safety requirements are little more than toothless tigers. They should have the power to prosecute the company directors and upper management, ostriches with their heads in the sand, and hit them where it hurts the most, in their pockets.
It seems that even the unions are passing the blame downhill to the workers themselves, scared of upsetting their masters, the contractors, at the expense of the very people they are paid to protect.
