Plan to reduce accidents and informality at work? Focus on mining, construction and agriculture

Reducing the number of accidents at work and combating informality are the main goals of the government, expressed in the 2024-2030 Plan.

According to the consultation document, the highest accidents are in the sectors with the highest evasion, and the sectors that have the highest number of accidents such as construction, mining, agriculture and transport will be the focus of detailed controls and inspections, in order guaranteeing safety at work. In total, during 2023, 168 accidents at work were registered, 30 with fatal consequences for life, where most were in the construction sector, the manufacturing industry and mining.

Inspections will be based mainly on technology with the aim of establishing a digital system for data on health at work and to receive alerts for non-compliance with conditions.

"The implementation of the digital data system for occupational health will clarify and make more efficient the process of managing and analyzing patient data for occupational physicians. This system will facilitate the efficient diagnosis of occupational diseases leading to timely intervention and treatment of the problem. Moreover, it would enable the monitoring of risks and trends in the work environment for occupational health issues, helping policy-making based on data", the strategy states.

It states that a national registry for occupational injuries will be created and a task force will be set up to review the notification, registration and recognition system for occupational diseases.

Another focus, it is said, will be to attack the phenomenon of under-declaration of wages.

"Sectors that are particularly vulnerable to informality are agriculture, wholesale and retail trade, construction, where the levels of informal employment are recognized as high as over 84%", the strategy states.
