Underreporting of Workplace Accidents: The Hidden Crisis

The issue of underreporting workplace accidents is a critical concern. Official statistics, while alarming, do not reflect the full extent of the problem. Many workplace accidents, particularly in industries like mining and construction, go unreported. Workers in these sectors are often hired on temporary or informal contracts, leaving them without the necessary protections that formal employment might offer.

In Homeland, a large percentage of the workforce operates in the informal sector, where employers frequently bypass labor regulations, insurance requirements, and safety standards. This leaves workers without recourse in the event of an accident. Injuries and fatalities in these sectors are often swept under the rug, with workers either too afraid to speak out or unable to due to the absence of proper labor unions and syndicates.
