More than 600 miners stopped work after union leader Zamir Hysa died in a mine accident. They demanded safer conditions, proper contracts and a 50 percent pay rise; the action followed other deadly accidents and earlier hunger strikes. The workers’ account challenges the treatment of mining deaths as individual negligence and asks who is accountable when dangerous labor sustains an export industry.
