Construction update (4)

Health and safety at work

Each construction work is different from the other and it's always impossible to anticipate all the issues we're up to. In Ponta Bicuda, Cape Verde we're facing a problem we were not anticipating.... the dust!
We're exceeding the local legislation in terms of health and safety at work. All workers are required to wear hard hats, protective footwear, and high visibility vests. But when it comes to dust protection, besides the masks we've got two 8000 lt. tank trailers irrigating the site on a permanent basis and that is what makes the real difference. What about that?
