Increase in industrial accidents in Andalucía

A 21 year old construction worker died yesterday whilst working on a building in the centre of Cádiz. The youth was on his own at the time of the accident and investigators are now trying to find out how and why it happened.

Elsewhere in Cádiz, five people were injured, although none of them seriously, when a roof collapsed. The men were carrying out work on the Mercadona supermarket on the La Vega industrial estate in Tarifa when the collapse occurred.

There have been 47 fatal industrial accidents in Andalucía during the first three months of this year, an increase of around 20% on the same period last year.
