After the incident of monday to terminal VTE of the port of Genoa that has caused the dead women of a truck driver swept up from an engine, today another serious misfortune has happened in the industrial port of Livorno where an explosion happened in a Black tank of the Coastal warehouse has killed two workers. According to a first reconstruction the men, employee of the company specialized in the Labromare reclamations, were carrying out some work of maintenance inside of the warehouse.
Expressing own mourning and of the association to all to the families of the victims of these incidents that - it has emphasized - with their job have contributed to the economy of our Country, the president of Assoporti, Zeno D' Augustin, have evidenced that "these events, even though with different dynamics, remember to us how much is important the continuous verification of the norms and the rules on safety, by all the involved subjects. At the same time - it has concluded Of Augustin - it goes assured a specific formation and it continues to which they operate in the harbour withins".
"We face - the mayor of Livorno, Filippo Nogarin has declared, immediately gone on the place of the incident - to a tragedy immane. It touches to count the umpteenth incident on the job that tears two innocent men to their families. In this dramatic moment for all the city the my first thought is for they. To these wives, mothers, sons. To everyone of they my deeper mourning goes, my support and the maximum vicinity. More fort of the pain, in this moment - it has added Nogarin - is only the anger. Because all this is unacceptable. How much anchor, I wonder, must become the directory of the victims and the tragedies consumed on the job places before it is succeeded to make something? To all the workers, in particular to those which they operate in harbour atmosphere, politics must guarantee maximum safety constantly and not the empty chats. The end of a life does not admit hesitations and imposes brave answers; above all it imposes immediate answers. In this moment the prelocated authorities are engaged to enlighten on this terrible event, I hope that they succeed to as soon as possible clarify dynamics of the facts and to assess the eventual responsibilities".
