National Labour Day Project

Description:

The Institute of Jamaica (IOJ), an agency of the Ministry of Culture, Gender, Entertainment, and Sport (MCGES), has been chosen as the focal point for this year’s National Labour Day Project. Under the theme “Ramp Up Di Access… Show That You Care,” the project will include the installation of ramps and an elevator to enhance accessibility for individuals with disabilities. This initiative aligns with our commitment to making cultural heritage accessible to all.
The Labour Day activities will bring together volunteers from various sectors, including IOJ staff members, the Jamaica Defence Force (JDF), community representatives, and dignitaries. The Prime Minister will officially open the project during a brief ceremony at 10:30 a.m. 
Representatives from the Office of the Prime Minister (OPM), IOJ and MCGES will be available for interviews immediately following the event.
