to data from the Safety at work is striking: too many deaths, poor security and illegal work. The appeals of unions and civil society remain unheard and are still dying to work when you should work for a living E 'tragic deaths of the white balance in this first part of 2011. The year started with 50 crosses at work in Italy. Almost two deaths a day. And they are twice those recorded in the same month last year. In short, people are talking about safety, awareness for both the workers and for the "owners" but nothing seems to change. The south, as always, is high on the list for the number of victims with Sicily and Campania, followed by Lombardia, Emilia Romagna and Veneto. But it is the Valle d'Aosta to lead the victims of the impact of computed the working population. The provinces most affected are Catania and Napoli followed by Bologna and Milan. The leaves fall from the top causes of death in the crush happened after the fall of heavy objects. Even before the death of the agriculture, the sector hardest hit. Also increased the scourge of illegal work that contributes to high risk and mortality for the workers.
In January, as I said, 50 deaths were white in Italy. Throughout the first half of 2010 had never come to an elevated amount.
This is the first and tragic snapshot taken by the experts of the Centre of Occupational Safety Engineering Mestre Vega in charge of daily monitoring the drama, at the national level. A disappointing result for the onset and alarming when to wear the black jersey is no longer the northern regions, but rather those of the south of Sicily and Campania in the lead with seven victims, followed by Lombardy (6), Emilia Romagna ( 5) and Veneto (4). In addition to absolute numbers, however, is significantly less mortality than the working population. And the highest values \u200b\u200bcome from the Valle D'Aosta (35.5 against a national average of 4.4) together with the Basilicata (15.7) and Calabria (5.1).
Friuli, Marche Molise, Tuscany and Umbria are the only region not to have been involved in the month of January. The so-called happy isles.
While there are provincial ranking in Catania and Naples, with 4 white deaths, followed by Bologna and Milan (3), Matera, Aosta, Savona, Messina, Caserta, Lecce, Verona and Turin (2). Aosta, Matera and Savona, still leads the provincial implications than the working population. Once again, agriculture is the most voted site of the tragedy with 32 percent of the victims. Twice those found in the construction industry (16 percent). Equally worrying 12 per cent of fatalities recorded in the trade and craft activities and 10 per cent of transport, warehousing and construction. Enter
ranked journalists, often the victim of aggression intimidation and physical and moral.
A new data, however, emerge in the investigation of the causes that led to the death of the workers and the fall from the top is no longer at the top of the list. In 24 percent of cases, it was a crushing death occurred after the fall of heavy objects. In 20 percent of the cases was a fall from a height and 16 percent of the victims, the case was an accident due to the tilting / investing half in motion. Here are the standings: contact with moving parts in movement (12 percent), investment by self-propelled vehicle (10 percent) and fire (6 percent).
Not only men but also women covered in the series of tragic accidents and injuries of varying severity. Equally disturbing the data on female mortality: two are already the victims. At the end of 2010 there were 17. One thing, then, well above the average. Foreigners are 4 of 8 per cent of the total (compared to 10 percent in 2010). The age group most affected is always one in which the experience should be taught not to take the risk (between 40 and 49, or 36 percent of victims). The 20 per cent between 30 and 39 and 18 per cent between 60 and 69 years. From 70 years old is found 8 percent of the victims. The experience often goes hand in hand with feeling too safe, lower attention and concentration and thus to raise the risk of accidents. Last but not least
chart prepared by the experts of the Centre of Engineering Vega for over two decades deals with safety in the workplace is related to the days of the week in which episodes were most often fatal. It turns out that another innovation with the new year day blacks are changing: are Tuesday and Thursday. Last year on Wednesdays and Fridays. In the Northeast, however, on the podium in second place there on Sunday.
A whole series are additional cases, also on the rise, if the employee dies or suffers injury not at work but while he is going in the workplace. Even in this case the south is the master and the recent fatality occurred on the Palermo - Sciacca are there to witness the problem. Are not enough inspections, sanctions, we need a collective awakening, which invests employer and employee, the political class and business community. Work to live and not die to work.
