He was doing technical control of the machine at a height of 30 meters, where, according to the police report, he accidentally fell.
However, police are investigating the case as suspicious death.
His colleagues show that they had all the equipment needed for work, yet because of the loss of altitude, he did not survive the injuries.
This is the 43rd case that workers in Thermocentral have died in place of work, since the post-war.
For this, the chairman of the new KEK Union says the problem lies in the age of the facility and equipment, KTV reports.
They have expressed condolences through a communique to their families and have announced that a commission has been established to investigate the causes of their worker's death.
The safety of workers in the workplace continues to be low, especially of those in the construction sector. About 15 job deaths have been recorded during 2017 alone.
