France has the highest number of work accidents within the EU, and the second highest fatal mishaps. The numbers were published a week before a gathering of the International Labor Organisation, which opens on Monday.
According to figures published by the EU's statistics watchdog Eurostat this month, in 2020, there were 2.7 million non-fatal accidents that resulted in at least four calendar days of absence from work and 3,355 fatal accidents across the union.
