Meloni announces 1,600 new labour inspectors
Alarm at spate of workplace deaths in Italy
Premier Giorgia Meloni announced
Thursday that the government has approved the recruitment of
1,600 new labour inspectors, amid an alarm about a spate of
workplace deaths in Italy.
Concern has been heightened by the death last month of Satnam
Singh, an off-the-books 31-year-old Indian farm labourer who
bled out after being dumped outside his hut with an arm severed
by wrapping machinery placed beside him on a fruit picking box
at Latina south of Rome.
"In the last few months we ordered the hiring of 1,600 more
labour inspectors, with the the goal of doubling the number of
inspections done during 2024," Meloni said in a message to a
ceremony commemorating the victims of workplace accidents at the
Lower House.
