A safety campaign to reduce the number of deaths and injuries on building sites in the greater Dublin area is to start on Monday. For the next two weeks, inspectors of the Health and Safety Authority will target sites in a three-part drive. They will give safety advice to employers and workers, enforce safety and health laws, and take action where obvious risks are discovered.
