The accident happened last Thursday, when the man became trapped under the load of a truck. The unions LAB, ESK, STEILAS, Hiru and EHNE-Etxalde called a mobilization for next Tuesday at 12.30 pm.
The worker who came out seriously injured last week when he became trapped under the load of a truck in the business package 3 from Bergara (Gipuzkoa) died this Monday, as reported by the LAB union on the social network Tuesday at 12:30 in front of the company.
On Thursday afternoon, a transporter sitting in the cab of a truck heard “a loud noise” and realized it one of the workers had dropped the load on himselfthe union said in a statement.
Loading and unloading “entails a range of risks”, said LAB, which criticized the fact that the injured worker carried out the task “completely alone”.
LAB pointed out that the businessmen who failure to comply with occupational health regulations “they are killing workers” and stressed that “this attitude cannot go unpunished.”
For all these reasons, he called on companies to develop loading and unloading procedures “that anticipate risks” and “take all necessary measures.”
LABORATORY accused the Basque government of “complicity” with companies that do not comply with regulations and stated that Osalan has become a “consultancy without capacity” while the labor inspectorate “barely has any inspectors”.
The unions LAB, ESK, STEILAS, Hiru and EHNE-Etxalde called one mobilization for next Tuesday at 12:30 PM at the Larramendi industrial estate in the San Juan de Bergara district to report this latest fatal accident.
By LAB’s count, so far this year 26 people have died in industrial accidents and hundreds of people have been injured.
