I will take the tangent and not talk about working kid at dangerous jobs.
First of all, i like your country, it's diverse and fun, you have a lot of great people.
But your tradesmen are under qualified. Your security protocol are shitty, the average precision of your painters, carpenter and woodworkers is equal to mine, or that of my father 20 years ago before he took carpentry classes. I have the impression every single tradepeople i've talked to learned on the job, and a good part did not have any mentor. In fact, the old guy i visit in WV mentored like a third of the people at the party, and everybody gushed about how it was nice and rare, how i was lucky to be related to him, and all that effusion of sentiments that make american endearing and likeable (for me), except with an Appalachian accent.
That this kind of accident happen do not surprise me.
Accidents like those happen in France too, recently a 20 year old apprentice died, and it came into light that his supervisor was 24 and not much more competent. The company lost a lot, the rule were tightened about supervisors and competencies, and mybe we will have like 5 accidents this decade. Hopefully no mortal ones.
