Representatives of the Plaintiff and the Subcontractor of the "Worker's Crash Death" are indicted for "violation of the Serious Accident Act."

The Cheonan branch of the Daejeon District Prosecutor's Office said it has handed over the representative of the original and subcontractors at the apartment construction site where the worker's fall died to trial on charges of violating the Serious Accident Punishment Act.

Two field directors and two companies were also put on trial for violating the Occupational Safety and Health Act.

Mr. A and others are accused of failing to take proper safety measures at the apartment construction site in Tangjeong-myeon, Asan-si, Chungcheongnam-do in August 2022, causing two workers who were cleaning the elevator to fall to the second basement floor and die.

The prosecution explained that the accident occurred because the companies violated their duty of safety measures, such as not installing fall protective nets under the sloping shelves where cleaning work takes place.
