The New York City Department of Buildings has mandated new safety measures
for construction sites. They include inspection of every construction site
and require that a safety manager supervise all sites from beginning to end of
the construction project. The new standards will create safer worksites
for the workers as well as the general public. Thankfully, those who helped
implement these new standards ignored Mayor Bloomberg's lead following last
months crane disaster. In response to safety violations which may
have led to the workers' deaths as a result of the crane collapse, he claimed the
multiple violations at this construction site were unrelated to the cause
of the crane collapse. Bloomberg was wrong and these new safety measures are
proof of same!
