Our Community Liam O RuaircThe United Nation's International Labour Organisation published a report in May this year whose stunning conclusion was that bad conditions in the workplace bring about more death and suffering than wars or drug and alcohol abuse combined. More than two million people die from preventable work related accidents or diseases every year - equivalent to one death every 15 seconds or a September 11 every day. The total is now three times the annual number of deaths in wars every year (650,000 killed) and also exceeds deaths from alcohol and drug abuse combined. Things are getting worse as two years ago the figure was "just" 1.2 million deaths. The United Nation report named agriculture, construction and mining as the three most dangerous occupations in the world. ("The Guardian" 2 May 2002) [The Blanket]
