Six were in the construction sector. Four of the eleven victims were foreign nationals. Some may have been wrongly declared as posted workers. The figures on accidents at work that will be definitively published may therefore differ from the statistics known today, if some people turn out not to be covered by accident insurance or if some deaths are not yet reported to the Accident Insurance Centre (<a href=\"https:\/\/www.tvk.fi\/tapaturmavakuutuskeskus\/tehtavat-ja-hallinto\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\"><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">TVK<\/span><\/a>, in Finnish). The average age of the victims was just over 50.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe accidents were traditional injuries that could have been prevented by known occupational safety methods\u201d explains occupational safety expert Kimmo Salojoki. Four accidents were caused by bypassing or failing to use safety devices.<\/p>\n<p>In 2020, TVK has launched three new investigations into serious but non-fatal occupational injuries.
