Yup.. I saw their pictures.. they don't even have any proper PPE..

The site is constructed by a JV between French group Vinci and Qatar's Diyar company..

Unless you have any federal identity, you would not be allowed without accompanying a letter/gate pass (at least) from their administration.

It is for their own safety. The stadia are in early stages of being built and the inspectors could injure themselves since they are not trained in Health and safety.

LLR: quality inspectors don’t take appointments.

Health and sanitary violations for things like lack of cleanliness, failure remove the toxics from work-sites or provide workers with safety helmets vets boots etc.

Cleaning the dirty rooms and toilets, or setting up additional make-shift A/C conditioned mock-up clean accommodations blocks of wooden cabinets for the labor activists to inspect. And then instruct tour guides to take the delegation to these cleaned up sites.

New dog old trick. LLR, the key word is transparency. Corruption has no consciences.

looks like a kick back to the times when weapon inspectors were searching for weapons of mass distruction in Iraq and always getting the merry go round

How do you think they can cover it up?

Be practical.

They should take appointments? Why? So that the abusers can cover up the awful conditions they keep people in to show that everyone is happy. How naive.

I am not sure what has really happened but it should not be something like police or spying thing.. they should take appointments professionally..
