Rail workers respond to transport minister after Spain train crash: ‘Human errors occur when you don’t have the equipment you need to do your job’

Rail workers in Spain are criticizing the lack of investment and staffing in the rail system following a recent train crash. They argue that blaming human error is premature and that proper equipment is essential for safety. Union representatives emphasize the need for structural changes in the rail system, citing previous accidents and ongoing issues with outdated technology. A planned strike for October 30 will proceed, focusing on rail safety and demanding necessary reforms. Unions are urging caution in assigning blame until investigations are complete, highlighting the importance of addressing systemic problems rather than scapegoating workers.
