A building site, much the same the world over. But this more dangerous. No safety rails and very few hard hats. This is probable the most dangerous phase in the construction. Health and safety as a ways to go here.
But we choose to start with bricklaying and concreting because these are the jobs most affected by the season nature of the construction industry. It is against the law to build in winter. Here pictured is …….., one of Grand Perfect’s first graduate trainees in concreting.
Together with his colleague,…….., …….earns 200,000 tug (approx.$180) for a month of 12 hour days. No rest day. This was their first task on the site and they have done so well that the company, Jiguur Grand has taken them on to the payroll proper.
Other graduating trainees from GP like …..picture here with her trainer…. are on one month’s probation on other companies construction sites around UB. It is not an easy job. We start new courses in tiling, plastering, domestic electrical installation and plumbing at the beginning of September.
