As is customary, corporate Jamaica usually sheds suits and ties and replaces boardrooms for shovels, wheelbarrows and paintbrushes as it pitches in to spruce up some of the island's neglected public spaces and buildings. On Wednesday, they came out again to labour for the nation and our cameras caught some of the activity. Here are some pictorial highlights as work duds replaced suits and ties.
