| description | The Malaysian government is currently improving the quality of workers temporary
accommodation by introducing MS2593:2015 (Code of Practice for Temporary Site Workers
Amenities and Accommodation) in 2015. It is in line with the initiative in the Construction
Industry Transformation Programme (2016-2020) to increase the quality and well-being of
construction workers in Malaysia. Thus, to gauge the current practice of temporary
accommodation on complying with the particular guideline, this paper has put forth the
observation of such accommodation towards elements in Section 3 within MS2593:2015. A total
of seventeen (17) temporary accommodation provided by Grade 6 and Grade 7 contractors in
Johor were selected and assessed. The results disclosed that most of the temporary
accommodation was not complying with the guideline, where only thirteen (13) out of fifty-eight
(58) elements have recorded full compliance (100%), and the lowest compliance percentage
(5.9%) are discovered in the Section 3.12 (Signage). In a nutshell, given the significant gap of
compliance between current practices of temporary accommodation and MS2593:2015, a
holistic initiative need to be in place for the guideline to be worthwhile. |
