FACK - Bereaved families want justice

As individuals we are held far more accountable for our actions than employers. A moment’s inattention and a mistake on the motorway can lead to a death and a driver facing manslaughter charges and possible imprisonment.

Yet, employers who have flouted health and safety laws for years, cutting corners to save money, will generally not face imprisonment and may in fact face no individual charges at all. Campaigner Louise Adamson calls for real justice at work.
"Today’s workplace has become heartless and soulless. Employees are seen as units of labour, automatons, functionaries, objects for achieving designated tasks, and as costs to be minimised."
