"In 14 years there have been 15,000 deaths at work and 10 million injuries, an average of 700,000 injuries a year. We should have had 15,000 sentences, because we only have a few hundred?".
This was stated by the director general of the National Labor Inspectorate, Bruno Giordano, at the hearing on the M5s bill on the establishment of the National Labor Prosecutor's Office.
With the "fragmented nature of a supervisory framework in labor matters, coordination at the investigative level is even more necessary", he said, underlining "the issue of uniformity and homogeneity of investigations. Victims need to have the same justice".
