Ancona

A worker died after falling roughly eight metres at a workplace in Robecco sul Naviglio, in the Milan area, according to Italian media. The death was reported alongside another fatal workplace accident in Ancona, renewing attention on safety conditions on Italian job sites.

A worker died and another was left in critical condition after a flash fire struck them during work at the Fincantieri shipyard in Ancona, Italy. Unions called the accident unacceptable, with Avs politician Francesco Nobili blaming a 'jungle' of subcontracting that puts workers' rights at risk in the yards. The incident has drawn national media attention and renewed calls for safety measures in Italian shipbuilding.
