BTS'S EXPLANATION IS

A New Job Murder on the Railways…

Today, we are living with a fatal and injured job murders have been added a new one.

292 + 000 and 295 + 000 in the Adana-Ulukışla line between 20 + 2 and XNUMX on the scaffold are wounded when the mobile scaffold reel is wounded when the mobile scaffold reel is wounded and the line maintenance repair officer between the scaffold and the work-car is stopped. Hasan GÜNGÖR has lost his life.

While wishing the head health to the family and relatives of the member who lost his life in the accident, we wish a speedy recovery to the wounded.

After the restructuring of the TCDD, almost all of the railway construction, maintenance-repair and other works are built into the private sector by direct procurement or tendering. The fact that the private sector firms do not employ sufficient number and qualified personnel during these works and the necessary precautions are not taken within the scope of Occupational Health and Safety causes such accidents and invites new accidents.

Just last month (on the date of 12.01.2018) a worker lost his life due to high voltages in the substation located in Kirklareli Büyükmandıra town of Edirne, where he was the conductor of TCDD Edirne Electrification. In the aftermath of this work accident, new accidents continue to be experienced despite warnings about unfair assignments that negatively affect occupational health and safety.

The main responsible for this accident; the restructuring of TCDD by ignoring our preventive security measures, ignoring our warnings and ignoring our warnings. Then, meaningless workplace mergers and unassuming appointments are the management approaches that insist on and employ a lot of people by not employing sufficient number of control staff.

We call on TCDD management to take necessary measures to prevent such accidents.
