The response to this talk was positive with participants finding it very informative, useful and relevant to their work. During the talk, the Local Singapore Regulation on WSH Act (Workplace Safety & Health Act) was presented through a special skit, leveraging on the concept of the comedy movie - “Sister Act”. The skit was put up by the organizing committee of Leeden. Through the skit, the participants brought home with them salient pointers on the WSH Act which highlighted the responsibilities of the stakeholders that were mapped out in this regulation and the Hierarchy of Risk Control in workplaces.
