    Why the fuck wouldn’t you engineer a walk in oven to have an emergency lever on the inside?

    Or like… A door handle

      It would. As well as many other safety features. If we ever hear about what happened, it won’t likely be a story of “trapped and couldn’t escape”.

        Walk in freezers don’t have handles on the inside either mate there is a very strong chance these don’t either.

        Why? Capitalism and no oversight regulations with teeth, that’s why.

        “Trapped in oven and couldn’t escape” is not uncommon. I invite you to google and restrict your search to a time before the recent news:

        All this death could literally be solved by a single fucking safety law placed on workplaces.
