In 2018 alone, 35 deaths were detected, 30 in 2019… And those that are known are only 10%. Dozens of workers who worked silently each year in contact with this killer asbestos will lose their lives.

The asbestos killer has also appeared in the Zaldibar landfill, where he has been found alive. Two workers have disappeared in it, and the management of the company, the Basque Government and the Basque Government, has been disastrous. Great scandal. The workers had to go to the rescue of these two workers, without the Ertzainas being aware that asbestos was found in the landfill. Not even the missing. Each of us, in its own measure, bears responsibility for accidents at work, but in this case, the owner company, the Provincial Government and the Basque Government are really responsible for the management and dismantling of the landfill.

The workers and ertzainas who went to the rescue of the Zaldibar landfill are already candidates for the execution of the tasks. This may happen in a few years’ time, but they are also the victims of asbestos. Without waiting to die, and I hope this will not happen, the company, the Basque Government and the Basque Government already have to take the necessary steps to ensure that these workers and Ertzainas are continuously monitored. They should also analyse the management company’s responsibility without piety. And the political and forcible leaders responsible for not hindering, or provoking, that tragedy or scandal must be dismissed.
