Milan, July 3 (LaPresse) – "In 2024, the total number of injury reports was 593,000, a slight increase. Reports of fatal workplace accidents were 1,202 — one more than the previous year. This is a figure that is essentially stable, but morally unacceptable. Because every death at work is a collective failure. And every serious accident that we could have prevented weighs on all of us."
This was stated by the Minister of Labour and Social Policies, Marina Calderone, during her speech at the presentation of the 2024 INAIL Annual Report.
"The State, through INAIL, stands by its working citizens and — a peculiarity of the Italian system — also during their commute: Italy, unlike other countries, has the foresight and sensitivity to monitor and therefore protect even the fragile time between home and the workplace," Calderone added.
