23 entities fined for not respecting safety at work, Minister Gonxha: There will

The Minister of Economy, Culture and Innovation, Blendi Gonxhja, has made a strong appeal for respect for occupational health and safety rules, emphasizing that any violation will face immediate sanctions.

"Any entity that does not respect technical regulations and does not implement the law on Occupational Safety and Health will face legal measures without any tolerance," the minister said.

According to data from the State Labor Inspectorate, intensive inspections were carried out in the construction sector last week. Of the 23 inspected entities, serious violations of safety conditions were found, and as a result, the measure of suspending work was taken until the legal conditions for the protection of the life and health of employees are fully met.

Minister Gonxha underlined: "Disrespecting safety is not a choice - it is a violation!" and called for the creation of a safe and healthy work culture, where every employee is protected according to the law.

"SAFETY AT WORK IS NOT AN OPTION - IT IS A LEGAL OBLIGATION!
Any entity that does not respect the technical rules and does not implement the law on Occupational Safety and Health will face immediate sanctions and any other legal measures, without any tolerance.
