Our friend @demolitionnews (Twitter username) wrote an excellent post on his site. What he writes about is an excellent example of when a worker's life is clearly overlooked. Sadly, what he writes is not only evident in the demolition industry but it can be seen in all industries.
What is the price of a human life? Let’s put that another way. What would you pay to save the life of one of your loved ones: your wife, say, or one of your children? A million? Ten million? A hundred million?
Of course, there is no right answer. The cost of a human life is beyond mere money. Unless, of course, you work for the Hawaiian State Department. In which case, a human life – that of a demolition worker, 54-year old Juan Navarro, killed in the line of duty – is worth $1,500…or $750 each for the two companies cited in his death.
