Accidents at work, trade unions: “A terrible year in Rome with 50 victims”
“Yet another fatal accident this morning in Rome. Yet another tragedy that takes away a construction worker of about 50, after a fall from a scaffolding. The accident occurred in via Merulana, inside the private courtyard of a convent. Presumably the workers were assembling the score to work on the facades. From the first checks, the shipyard seems to present some criticisms. It will therefore be essential that responsibilities and compliance with health and safety regulations are investigated as soon as possible “.
The CGIL of Rome and Lazio, the CISL of Roma Capitale Rieti and the UIL of Lazio write it in a note. “The number of victims at work in Rome and its province thus rises to almost 50 – continues the note from the trade unions -. At this point we can say without fear of denial that the capital holds the Italian record for deaths at work, mostly due to falls from scaffolding in the construction sector “.
