To date, more than 180 Bahamians from various islands are actively engaged in the construction phase with 29 of the 31 companies on site being Bahamian.
迄今为止，来自不同岛屿的180多名巴哈马人积极参与施工阶段，在场的31家公司中，有29家是巴哈马人。
Lionel Jervis, project manager for KFL Construction, said: "Carnival has really demonstrated its belief in Grand Bahamians. Local companies are working on all aspects of this development, giving us a unique opportunity to employ so many local people. We are all gaining invaluable experience on a groundbreaking project, working together to build something that will be extremely impactful for the future of Grand Bahama."
KFL Construction项目经理莱昂内尔·杰维斯说：“狂欢节确实表明了对大巴哈马人的信念。本地公司正在研究这一开发项目的各个方面，这为我们提供了雇用这么多当地人的难得机会。我们都在一个开创性的项目中积累了宝贵的经验，共同努力建造对大巴哈马岛的未来具有极大影响力的项目。”
With its recently announced $100 million pier extension, the now $600 million Celebration Key cruise port is poised to make a significant economic impact on the community of Grand Bahama. Beyond construction, opportunities for Bahamians in direct and indirect employment are available in several areas including food and beverage, retail, shore excursions, transportation and subcontracting services.
随着最近宣布耗资1亿美元的扩建码头，现在耗资6亿美元的Celebration Key邮轮港口有望对大巴哈马岛社区产生重大的经济影响。除建筑业外，巴哈马人在食品和饮料、零售、岸上游览、运输和分包服务等多个领域都有直接和间接就业机会。
As part of Carnival's commitment to sustainable partnerships, at least 75% of outlets at Celebration Key will be owned and operated by Bahamians. This represents a substantial opportunity for local businesses, with up to 70 restaurants and retail outlets of various sizes set to be established. The project will generate over 700 permanent jobs in Grand Bahama, including approximately 300 Bahamians hired directly by Carnival Corporation to help welcome 2.2 million guests each year to Grand Bahama starting in 2025.
作为嘉年华对可持续合作伙伴关系的承诺的一部分，Celebration Key至少有75％的门店将由巴哈马人拥有和经营。这对当地企业来说是一个巨大的机遇，将建立多达70家不同规模的餐厅和零售店。该项目将在大巴哈马岛创造700多个长期工作岗位，其中包括嘉年华公司直接雇用的约300名巴哈马人，从2025年开始每年为大巴哈马岛接待220万名客人。
Throughout the construction phase, Carnival Corporation's dedication to safety remains paramount, with rigorous protocols in place to safeguard the well-being of all workers, as emphasized by Bahamian Lilith Hanna, Safety Manager for the construction site.
正如施工现场安全经理巴哈马人莉莉丝·汉纳所强调的那样，在整个施工阶段，嘉年华公司对安全的承诺仍然至关重要，并制定了严格的协议来保障所有工人的福祉。
"We maintain the highest safety standards for all workers at Celebration Key," Hanna said. "Our comprehensive protocols are designed to minimize the risk of injury to workers and create a safe and secure environment in which to undertake this work."
汉娜说：“我们对Celebration Key的所有员工保持最高的安全标准。”“我们的全面协议旨在最大限度地降低工人受伤的风险，并为开展这项工作创造一个安全可靠的环境。”
The various Bahamian companies working at the site have been assigned projects that work to their particular strengths. The latest local contractor to come aboard is Island Site Development, which boasts a great deal of experience in delivering food and beverage facilities at developments around The Bahamas and across the Caribbean.
已为在该地点工作的各家巴哈马公司分配了发挥其特定优势的项目。最新加入的当地承包商是Island Site Development，该公司在为巴哈马群岛和整个加勒比地区的开发项目提供食品和饮料设施方面拥有丰富的经验。
Carnival Corporation has also set up a digital portal for contractors and skilled laborers who many not have their own company but possess skills and experience that would make them an asset to the project.
嘉年华公司还成立了 数字门户 适用于承包商和熟练劳动者，他们许多人没有自己的公司，但拥有使他们成为项目资产的技能和经验。

There is such a wealth of talent and skill on the island. We want to make sure we are doing everything we can to maximize the participation of Bahamians in general, and Grand Bahamians in particular, in every aspect of this project."
