Safety Manager
In response to our letter of 2 August 2007, the Secretary for Development sent in a reply alleging that imposition of additional requirements for eligibility of Safety Manager of the Development Bureau is not a bureau policy but special conditions of contract pertaining to individual contractual requirements. The issue is now being reviewed. Please read the copy of their reply for further details.

Safety Manager
Some of you may know the eligibility to be a Safety Manager of the projects of the Development Bureau (previously called Works Bureau, then Environment, Transport and Works Bureau), the incumbent need to possess a degree in civil engineering plus a corporate membership of the Institution of Occupational Safety and Health (IOSH). The Executive Council considers that while a degree in civil engineering would be beneficial in terms of the knowledge of a site safety officer, experience should carry more weight. and hence this requirement should not be imposed as a "MUST" but a "NICE TO HAVE". The Executive Council is also of the view that although IOSH is a prestigious safety organization in its own right, SRSO being a professional safety association comprising exclusively of registered safety officers as its full members should be at least on par with IOSH in terms of professionalism. In respect of this, the President of SRSO has written a letter to Mr CK Mak, Permanent Secretary for Development (Works) in 2 August 2007 bringing him attention to the above two points, and requesting Mr Mak to also consider membership of SRSO to be included alongside membership of IOSH when assessing on the eligibility. The dialogue with Mr Mak's colleague has just opened. Members will be briefed on the outcome when a firm reply from the authority is received. The Executive Council will fight for the benefit of our members whenever there is an opportunity to do so. Please keep your fingers crossed.
