The Occupational Health and Safety Assembly (ISIG) released the four-month balance sheet for occupational homicides. The data are compiled from the workers' colleagues, families, occupational safety experts, occupational physicians, unions and the press.

According to the report, at least 585 workers lost their lives in the first 4 months of 2023. In particular, 120 in January, 213 in February, 130 in March and 122 in April.

ISIG said: “So far this year, at least 5 workers have lost their lives in occupational homicides every day. We say at least because what we have detected is reflected in the press or reported to us. On the one hand, it is almost impossible to obtain information about workers who lost their lives in the earthquake zone (we have obtained  information about 110 worker deaths so far). On the other hand, due to the earthquake agenda, the media coverage of work-related murders in other cities has decreased."

The report said that the number of workers who lost their lives during the AKP rule increased to at least 31,131 people.

According to the ISIG report, worker deaths in 21 years of the AKP government are as follows:

146 workers in the last two months of 2002, 811 workers in 2003, 843 workers in 2004, 1096 workers in 2005, 1601 workers in 2006, 1044 workers in 2007, 866 workers in 2008, 1171 workers in 2009, 1454 workers in 2010, in 2011 1710 workers, 878 workers in 2012, 1235 workers in 2013, 1886 workers in 2014, 1730 workers in 2015, 1970 workers in 2016, 2006 workers in 2017, 1923 workers in 2018, 1736 workers in 2019, 2427 workers in 2020, in 2021 2170 workers, 1843 workers in 2022 and 585 workers in the first four months of 2023.
