(MF/JB) Luxembourg's workplace inspection body hopes
to introduce fines for negligent employers whose staff suffer
workplace accidents in a bid to reduce the number of injuries and
deaths.
Last year, there were 11 fatal accidents in
Luxembourg and so far this year there have been nine, of which seven
were on building sites, the “Inspection du Travail et des Mines
Agence Luxembourg” (ITM) revealed in a press conference on
Wednesday.
