little over a year ago we developed the tragedy of ThyssenKrupp, which led a horrible death seven workers who were employed by the German company.
burned alive.
The episode was paradigmatic of a bitter reality that grips our country, that of death on the job. Over the year 1000. The double murders.
In recent days I could not fail to note with pleasure how the anniversary was a lot of attention, with special broadcasts Ballarò and the infidel.
There are things that make blood run cold. The company, the same one that has left seven of its workers die in this manner so horrible, not doing anything to ensure the security they deserve, makes lots of useful for me, personally, suck. 3 billion euros last year. The economy of this region among the richest. And with so much money, does not deign to recharge fire extinguishers.
The 7 families destroyed, then, are something that should be ashamed of much more than does.
It is said that since then, something has changed. A Ballarò (where there was the president of Confindustria Sicily, the one who expels his colleagues who pay protection money ... Maybe the Italian entrepreneurs were really like him. The exception proves the rule, unfortunately), to the infidel, is said that something had changed even in the corporate culture. And certainly in the institutional challenge. But is it really?
I think back to some things I've seen for a year now, after the tragedy. In those days, just Ballarò, were often present various representatives of the national leadership of Confindustria. Their first concern was not to make self-criticism, to be aware of what their world was Mark (because one thing is sure, when the fish stinks, it stinks from the head. And so if there is such a scourge, the causes lie in the handle), what had to be corrected. Of course not! Their only concern was to ensure that the incident did not not pushed the government to give workers a little less insecurity in some rights and more! "A tightening labor market," as they call it ... Della Valle (passing through progressive ... Sic!) Dismissed the issue saying he simply had to step up controls ...
When Damiano made the least he could do, at least a law that would punish more severely those who did not comply with safety rules, Montezemolo & c. are literally insurgents, and with them the then Opposition (now majority) ... While the rest on abolition of temporary work for dangerous work (which Damian had promised to push the Left), and so on greater investment. he has not seen anything (ok, the Prodi government fell ... I do not know what would have happened otherwise ...).
After we had been so hoarse, in saying that the extraordinary kills, that the excess hours worked made a mathematical increase in injuries, one of the first things done by the new government was to encourage overtime (with ridiculous results Moreover, but that's another story).
When Thyssen and his manager were indicted for murder (which is seems to me really the least! He's right, the sister of one of the victims, who told Ballarò that these people deserve a life sentence, such as that suffered the workers who have lost their lives, and their families, that if the views are ruined !), then hell broke loose! The judges have been attacked by Confindustria, the Government, and also from various "thinkers" (sic), including a so-called "former employee Marco Biagi" (which in my opinion is turning in his grave, because he murdered. ..), who called it "absurd" and told the Corriere della Sera (this is the only link that I found the interview) that "as managers turn into criminals!"
Damian's law has tightened up the penalties for failure to comply with safety rules (the law has worked a bit since last year, workplace fatalities have decreased, although still too little is ...), constantly under attack by Sacconi, who for months announces he wants to change .
And the candlelight vigil in memory of victims of Turin, Government absent, absent Confindustria, Industrial Union of Turin absent.
We are quite sure that the lesson that was given to us by the tragedy of Thyssenkrupp, as all the tragedies that are repeated every day, has been incorporated, has actually brought a new and more just culture? A year ago
greeted with anger the news of the tragedy. In this anger now, you add what I feel now, to see how many things are still not change, while workers continue to die!
Rest in peace, hero.
