Whilst the works is massively safer than what it was 20 years ago, please do not believe their published injury / accident figures.
Tata are absolutely terrible at reporting true accident figures, and what they do to try and keep the figures down is disgusting. Only today i have had a blazing row with the safety department over this. They are the biggest hypocrites I've ever come across in industry. |
It's where the chemical industry was 30 years ago. | | | |

Must have been the only person in port talbot who didn't hear it slept right through it but then again living in the land of the moving curtains the mountains perhaps muffled the noise. |
Totally unrelated but what do you mean by "the land of the moving curtains"?
Sounds like something Dylan Thomas would have said. | |
