TRAGIC ACCIDENT IN THE COPPER MINE OF ‘’RTB’’ BOR

MINER MILOJE PAVLOVIC LOST HIS LIFE




Bor, February 25, 2007
To great regret of the MWBU ‘’Nezavisnost’’ and as an outcome of the accident that happened on February 19, 2007, the death of our colleague, miner Miloje Pavlovic, was announced by the news media. All warnings by the ‘’Nezavisnost’’ Trade Union that the safety conditions are extremely bad in ‘’RTB’’ Bor, were permanently rejected. The employees themselves pointed out that one had to provide adequate working conditions as urgently as possible, so that they wouldn’t be a game of ‘’life and death’’, but the management and those responsible were silent and no actions were taken. One life is lost forever, and as to the accident itself which was a serious one, it could have been much worse.

Will anyone be responsible for this and whether the actions and measures, provided for by the law, are taken in order to prevent other losses of lives, no one can tell. There is neither a response from the management nor from those responsible for occupational safety.

Colleagues, brothers, we cannot go on further with this management and their managing of operations without fear for our lives. Until a new owner comes, we can only say ‘’good luck’’ and ‘’God help us’’, and only then get down to work.
