Shock Plan against Fatal Accidents at Work

The Ministry of Labor and Social Economy, the Labor and Social Security Inspection and the National Institute for Safety and Health at Work have presented the Shock Plan against fatal accidents at work with the motto:"Risking your life is not an option".

The objective of the plan is to fight against fatal workplace accidents, specifically reducing the incidence rates of this type of accident and reducing the severity of the damage caused to the health of workers.

The entire Labor and Social Security Inspection system will participate and the measures that will be carried out in collaboration with regional labor include the planning of actions, focusing on companies in which risk factors for work accidents are concentrated with inspection actions and awareness-raising actions in collaboration with the INSST.

The campaign is directed not only at the sectors or activities that have a higher accident rate, but also at priority activities based on their fatal accident rate and the affected working population, but identifying the specific causes and ways in which fatal accidents mostly occur. In this way, priority activities will be addressed to the agricultural sector (due to its impact on the use of machinery), fishing (to prevent drownings, loss of control, falls or effects of adverse weather conditions), construction, industry (accidents with machinery) and services, in the latter case affecting road transport.
