The Danish Working Environment Authority has decided to request an investigation of AarhusKarlshamn Denmark A/S’ responsibility with regard to the legislation on working environment in order to see if the company has missed anything in its work on safety.

”Since the incident in December the company has worked intensively to investigate the circumstances that led to the incident, and we have taken action to avoid any similar incidents in the future,” says Jorgen Balle, Managing Director for AarhusKarlshamn Denmark A/S.

”We will work together with the police and relevant authorities to go through the case as seen from the working environment authority’s perspective.”
