A cleaning service worker at PT Mekar Armada Jaya, a car body maker, in Magelang, Central Java, Miftahudin, sustained burns to 95 percent of his body and has been rushed to Tidar General Hospital.
Miftahudin’s clothes caught fire when he neglected to remove a stove lighter from a hot oven. The lighter caught fire.
Also injured were Hidayah, 21, a female co-worker who was near him at the time.
PT Mekar Armada Jaya’s painting division section head, Sofyan, said the company had warned workers not to carry around flammable items while working within the compound.
“This could be considered pure human error,” he said as quoted by kompas.com on Wednesday.
However, he continued that the company would cover all healthcare costs for the two workers.(png/dic)
