A worker died in an explosion this
morning in a paint factory building in Via Aristotele in
Brugherio, in the province of Monza, the latest in a long spate
of fatal workplace accidents in Italy.
The fire brigade is working at the scene to extinguish the fire
sparked by the blast.
At the moment, according to 118 emergency services, there are no
other people involved.
Workplace accident insurance agency INAIL said last week
that fatal accidents had risen by four to 268 in the first four
months of this year.
Five men died after inhaling toxic gas in a sewer network near
Palermo last month, and seven died in a hydro power
plant blast near Bologna in April.
