Workplace accidents have soared in the first seven months of the year, with 52 fatalities in Catalonia, 44.4% more than in the same period last year, when there were 36. Accidents—which include minor and serious accidents—are expected to decrease. It should be noted that these figures must be added to those from August, among which one stands out. Death due to work-related accident at the Ebro plant and one seasonal worker died of heat stroke in Alcarràs, among other victims.
