> I don't remember ever reading on HN about accidents in the shoe factory or in the construction site.

There are very few HN stories about shoe factories or construction sites full stop.

That's a whole other issue.

The hook for this story is Occ Health and Safety, many people have an interest in safety and the fact that a CEO died hasn't stirred interest out of pity or sympathy for a CEO, it's schadenfreude that lax safety standards caught someone that could have improved those standards.
