Meta għaxar snin ilu ingħatajna l-mandat biex immexxu l-pajjiż sibna ekonomija b’attività batuta. Fl-2013 il-Partit Laburista tela’ bl-għajta li se jagħti spinta ‘l quddiem l-ekonomija u fil-fatt dak li għamilna.

Is-saħħa u s-sigurtà trid tiġi osservata f’kull post tax-xogħol irrispettivament mit-tip ta’ xogħol li jkun qed isir. Ix-xogħol huwa parti integrali minn ħajjitna fejn inqattgħu parti sostanzjali mill-ħin tal-ġurnata tagħna.
