Pursuing Corporate Killers

The trades union-backed health and safety magazine Hazards is stepping up the pressure on deadly bosses with the launch of new 'deadly business' web resources.

"Workplace bosses kill and maim on a daily basis and they go unpunished," explained Hazards magazine's online editor Jawad Qasrawi. "The Hazards 'Deadly business' online resource provides tools, information and news to help trades unions and campaigners build the pressure on killer bosses. This isn't just about accidents at work it is about the enormous and hidden toll on workers of ill-health caused directly by their everyday work. And it is about making sure employers think twice before putting profits before people."

A section within the site entitled 'safety Crimes' takes you to the latest news on the continuing death toll of people at work in the UK.

Hazards is also working in tandem with organisations including trades unions and Families Against Corporate Killers (FACK) to press for explicit health and safety duties on company directors and for jail terms for those whose negligence causes work-related deaths.
