The forecasted fatal accidents in the mining and quarrying sector in Italy show a stabilization in numbers beginning in 2024, with two fatalities expected annually until 2025, dropping to one fatality annually from 2026 to 2028. This represents a significant stabilization compared to historical data prior to 2024. In 2023, the figure also stood around two fatalities, suggesting a concerted effort in improving safety measures or perhaps reflecting broader industry changes. The compound annual growth rate (CAGR) is effectively negative over the five-year forecast period, indicating a persistent reduction in fatal incidents.
Future trends to monitor include the implementation of advanced safety technologies, regulatory changes, and industry shifts towards sustainable and safe practices, potentially contributing further to the reduction in workplace fatalities. Monitoring these factors will be crucial to assess the ongoing impact on safety performance in the sector.
