The data for 2023 reveals that France leads with the highest share of fatal work accidents in the buildings and landscape services sector in Europe, followed closely by Italy and Germany. Notable trends include a significant increase in Belgium and Finland, both showing a rise of roughly 14.87%, and a drastic decline in Slovakia, exhibiting a 100% decrease. Spain and the United Kingdom reported moderate increases of 7.39% and 3.71% respectively, while other countries like Lithuania and Poland recorded declines.
Looking forward, particular attention should be given to potential improvements in safety protocols, especially in countries with high accident shares like France. The reductions in Slovakia represent shifts that may point to substantial policy changes or safety advancements, which could serve as models for other countries. Continuous monitoring and improved regulations could reduce future incidents, providing benchmarks for achieving better safety standards across Europe.
