(Baonghean.vn) - Question: The company I work for has just had a fatal work accident. Because the director has just acquired this company, so they are expanding production, the company has not had time to implement regulations on labor safety. Safety and hygiene equipment has not been equipped at the workplace. So how will the company be handled?
