在Pike River灾难发生15年后,新西兰工会推行公司过失杀人法,理由是工人持续死亡和执法不力。 New Zealand unions push for corporate manslaughter law 15 years after Pike River disaster, citing ongoing worker deaths and weak enforcement.

新西兰的工会正在敦促政府通过一项公司过失杀人法,在Pike River矿山灾难造成29名矿工死亡15年后。 Unions in New Zealand are urging the government to pass a corporate manslaughter law, 15 years after the Pike River Mine disaster killed 29 miners. 他们说,法律对于追究公司对可预防的工人死亡的责任至关重要,理由是持续发生的死亡——大约每周一次——以及安全法执行不力。 They say the law is essential to hold companies accountable for preventable worker deaths, citing ongoing fatalities—about one per week—and weak enforcement of safety laws. 新西兰工会理事会和新西兰海事联盟支持Adrian Rurawhe的《成员法案》,该法案允许对严重疏忽的公司和管理人员提出刑事指控。 The New Zealand Council of Trade Unions and the Maritime Union of New Zealand support Adrian Rurawhe’s Members Bill, which would allow criminal charges against corporations and executives for gross negligence. 他们强调像奥克兰前港口首席执行官Tony Gibson的上诉等案例是系统性缺陷的证据,并强调为保护工人和名誉受害者需要更严厉的处罚。 They highlight cases like former Ports of Auckland CEO Tony Gibson’s appeal as evidence of systemic flaws and stress that stronger penalties are needed to protect workers and honor victims.
