Hazardous working conditions is described in the report: "Chronic occupational diseases receive less attention, because most are not detected until years after workers have been exposed to toxic chemicals, and because occupational illnesses often are misdiagnosed and poorly tracked" [1] The context here is the deaths of migrants working on construction sites for the World Cup. On site. 14 deaths/daily is a more comparable number. [1]
Also, you cited a report by the unions, for the purpose of promoting workplace safety. There are no such champions for migrants working in Qatar.

> if you scale it to the population of Qatar
That's incorrect way of scaling, since the majority of deaths in Qatar are migrants from countries such as the Philippines, Bangladesh, India or Pakistan.
