Guyana commissions an Occupational Safety and Health (OSH) Centre of Excellence at the New Amsterdam Technical Institute (NATI) in Region Six. The facility is being set up to expand occupational safety and health training and to help develop a safer, more skilled workforce. Officials describe it as the first centre of its kind in Guyana.
The outlets report the centre’s commissioning on Friday and link it to strengthened training capacity for workers and instructors. While both accounts broadly agree on the location at NATI in Region Six and the purpose of the centre, Kaieteur News specifies the project cost as $100 million. The Guyana Chronicle frames the opening as another step in building occupational safety capacity but does not highlight the same cost figure in its excerpt.
Overall, the coverage emphasizes the centre’s role in occupational safety education and its status as a first-of-its-kind initiative, with the main difference being the explicit $100 million figure mentioned by Kaieteur News.
