According to CGT statement: “In France, according to social security, an employee dies at work every 3 days. These are not the “risks of the profession”, but rather the consequences of employers' quest for maximum profit, with disregard for health and safety. This massacre is taking place with the complicity of the government which is organizing a reduction in obligations to protect employees by employers and weakens the means of control.” Photo by Pierrick Villette/ABACAPRESS.COM
