Worker dies 5 days after being hit on head by crane piece

(ANSA) - ROME, APR 29 - A 42-year-old Egyptian bricklayer died in hospital Monday where he had been admitted on 24 April due to injuries sustained in a work-related accident at a construction site in Monza, the latest in a spate of fatal workplace accidents in Italy that has left at least 125 men dead since the start of the year.
    The man had been hit in the head by a piece of iron from a crane that had suddenly come loose and was transported to the San Gerardo hospital in Monza in serious condition.
    The causes of the accident are still being investigated by the public prosecutor's office and ATS work safety technicians.
    Italy is enduring a spate of workplace accident deaths and unions have struck saying 'enough is enough' after seven workers were killed in an explosion at a hydroelectric power station near Bologna earlier this month. (ANSA).
