Mattarella: “Deaths at work offend the collective conscience”

“Deaths and accidents at work are an intolerable offense to the collective conscience.” As Sergio Mattarella in a message for the presentation of the report of the Parliamentary Commission of Inquiry on working conditions in Italy, following the tragic train accident in Brandizzo on 30 August 2023. “Safety at work – he adds – is a necessary condition for making the right effective fundamental and inalienable to health which cannot find limits in the lack or inadequacy of suitable measures to make work and the places where it takes place healthy and free of dangers. The commitment of the institutions and social partners to this aim will never be sufficient.” .

by Pierpaolo De Mejo


“Deaths and accidents at work – writes the President of the Republic – are an intolerable offense to the collective conscience. Carrying out an activity that contributes to the material or spiritual progress of society cannot and must not imply risks for the integrity of individuals “.

“Safety at work – we read – is a necessary condition to make effective the fundamental and inalienable right to health, protected by the Constitution, which cannot find limits in the lack or inadequacy of measures suitable for making work and the places where it takes place healthy and free from danger.” “The commitment of the institutions and the social partners to this aim will never be sufficient – continues the text. The Report of the Commission of Inquiry into working conditions in Italy will be able to offer a significant contribution of knowledge and analysis. In renewing closeness to the family members of those killed in the Brandizzo railway tragedy, some of whom were present at today’s initiative, I address my feelings of solidarity to the victims and families of all accidents at work”.
