## Resource

Tata Steel faces serious criminal charges from the Dutch Public Prosecution Service for knowingly polluting air around its IJmuiden plant, endangering public health and shortening local residents’ lives by up to 2.5 years. Workers also face elevated risks of premature death. The company is accused of neglecting safety, operating without permits, and failing to report hazardous incidents — following an earlier €8.5 million fine. The case, initiated in 2021 by a lawyer for 800 residents, now includes potential personal liability for executives, with the company summoned to respond as the investigation unfolds.
