Make this a priority and stop the fatalities

"Make this a priority and stop the fatalities"

"Replica from a elsäkerhetsexpert about safer work environments."

"This is an opinion piece. It is the writer who stands for the views that are put forward in the text, not Against."

"the DEBATE. Six ministers in Löfvens government highlights the importance of preventing fatal accidents at work. We who are active in the electrical engineering sector fully agree with this. We also know what action the government should give priority to in order to create a safer industry. "

"unlike almost all other industries, if you ignore some parts of the chemicals industry, managing employees in the electrical engineering sector daily a medium that is both universal and deadly – electric power. Error handling can bring dire consequences. "

"This one is aware of in the industry. Large force is put on to prevent accidents. It is about having an organization that recognizes and minimizes the risks, choose the right methods, plan their work and use the right protective equipment. Classic work, in other words. In the industry it is called ”safety at work”. "

"in Spite of this it happens that may not happen. Stress, carelessness or poor procedures allow a parent, a partner, or someone's child is harmed in the process. "

"Normally it is the Swedish work environment authority, which is investigating the accident, which is linked to work. But not when it comes to electricians, it has been shown. If an electrician or linjemontör damaged by the may power itself handles the national electrical safety board in the matter. "

"Knock the same person down from a work platform, it has there received been an issue for the Swedish work environment authority. The Swedish work environment authority has, more or less systematically, submission of notified accidents with electricity to the national electrical safety board. "

"It is time for the model (”electrical safety at work”) the industry and its long-standing commitment, highlighted in the systematic work environment management that all businesses must perform, and that the Swedish work environment authority has oversight responsibility for. "

"the Government may, thus, already today, to go from words to action by clarifying the Authority's mission: elteknikrelaterade accidents in the workplace should be managed like any other workplace accidents. "
