Mark Hardiman, Chief Executive Officer of PTP along with the management team, extended a warm welcome to the delegation. This visit offered a valuable opportunity for DOSH to gain a deeper understanding of PTP’s rigorous safety practices and unwavering commitment to fostering a safe working environment and culture for its employees.

The delegation was provided with a tour of PTP’s facilities, which included an informative briefing on PTP, as well as a sharing of the port’s robust safety programmes.
