“Occupational Injury?” You didn’t call 119, did you?!”
“Occupational Injury?” You didn’t call 119, did you?!”
On the 29th July 2015, Mr. Lee (34) was crushed by a forklift truck and dragged over 5 meters. His coworker urgently called 119. However, the ambulance couldn’t even get into the factory but returned back to their depot as his company “claimed” he sustained a ‘minor laceration’. What happened to Mr. Lee afterward? He ended up dying due to the lack of emergency care.
It is natural that 119 is not called at work even though workers are injured to conceal occupational injuries. Occupational injuries are being concealed by a secret promise among company owners, subcontracting companies and hospitals.
