Construction workers are breaking up from the state.

Construction workers in Kosovo are the only ones who, if they want, cannot feel the heat that is ruling. Even if they try, they cannot find a single shadow to avoid high temperatures. Everything, that's what their work is. Unfortunately, they don't have one protection on their arm. [...]
Even if they try, they cannot find a single shadow to avoid high temperatures. Everything, that's what their work is.
Unfortunately, they don't have one protection on their arm. They are forced to expose the sun to provide food even at extreme temperatures.
The Labour Inspectorate claims not competent. Your responsibility is transferred to other organs, which you do not specify when you mention them.
Labour Chief Inspector Basri Ibrahimi says a decision regulating the issue has not yet been issued in Kosovo.
The job inspector is not competent to assess the emergency situation. Other organs estimate that if there is an abnormal situation, they make decisions and set criteria for how and what to do with the situation. In the concrete case in Kosovo, such a decision has not yet been issued. The government or any other organ that I don't know who should be has not issued such a decision, says Ibrahim.
Private companies can continue to fuel workers. The inspector can't interrupt their work or pronounce a single fine. So claims Labour Chief Inspector Basri Ibrahim.
We as inspectors don't have the right to close or abort anyone. The job inspectorate is not competent for the value of emergency or abnormal climate situations. I know that you have been referring to a decision, which has the Macedonian Labour Inspectorate. But I have put in touch with the Labour Inspectorate in Macedonia, and they have told me that the same way it is in Kosovo. The Ministry of Health or someone else has given them such a decision then the labour inspectorate has declined, because neither in Kosovo nor Macedonia has the competence with such ace of assessments and made those decisions, he has further explained.
Indescsonline has also tried to contact health - care officials to see if they have made any decisions that the job inspectorate could continue with, but contact has been impossible.
That there is no legal basis that is guaranteed care to construction workers, the chairman of the Council for the Protection of Human Rights and Freedoms, Behxhet Shala, agrees.
If a worker works at a temperature of 37 degrees higher, he risks his health. Unfortunately, there's no legal basis or no address that orders the employer that at extremely high temperatures, he's done because he can stop the work and then that day make up for another day. There is no legal alternative that gives him the right to pronounce fines, Shala explained.
KMDLNJ chairman insists that companies provide conditions for workers not to risk their lives.
The One who has a number of workers working at these temperatures should take measures to ensure that they have adequate conditions for work so that life will not be endangered even if it works at a temperature of 37-38 degrees Celsius, without any protection, and that is the responsibility mainly of the employer or employer who has to respond to the worker's health. The inspector can go and visit them, but there's no warrant that you pronounce fines or stop your work.
But that's all. Construction workers continue to be discriminated against, as there is no law protecting them.
