Deadly work accident in Gammer: grief and shock in the community!

On Tuesday afternoon, while the local carnival festival was in full swing, several construction workers were spilled on a construction site of ground. The alarmed rescue workers, including the fire brigade and the Red Cross, hurried to the scene of the accident at around 3 p.m., but the situation was quickly complex. A total of five people were affected, but only three could be saved. Two workers suffered serious injuries and died at the scene of the accident, as "krone.at" reported.

rescue measures and investigations

Despite the spring -like sun that was illuminating the construction site, the excitement was great when the rescue workers arrived on site. While two workers could be saved relatively easily, it turned out that another worker had to be transported to the clinic in Gmunden. The urgent question that the police should now clarify is whether the construction site was properly secured. The exact circumstances of the accident are still unclear, and the investigation is running, as "kosmo.at".

This incident comes just two weeks after another tragic accident in Upper Austria, where two men plunged into a lift shaft. Such an accumulation of serious accidents arouses great concern in the region and is characterized by an urgent need for improved security measures on construction sites. The municipalities and security authorities are now under pressure to ensure the safety of the workers and to avoid similar tragedies in the future.
