Visakhapatnam: In a most fortunate incident, on Thursday, at Visakha shipyard, 2 workers were killed. Going into the details, the victims were painting a ship when all of sudden the hook of the crane fell down killing the duo on the setting. The colleagues of the victims complained that lack of adequate safety measures was the very reason for such a mishap. However, the management denies the fact stating it as a mere unforeseen incident.

In the recent past, the workplace catastrophes have been increasing. The most probable reasons for the same are:

  • Lack of adequate safety measures
  • Operators’ fatigue due to restless work
  • Using substandard items and tools in their day to day task
  • Irresponsible attitude of both workers and management

Such a situation needs to be controlled to avert the number of accidents which are rather at their peak nowadays.
