This page tracks the incidence rate of fatal accidents at work in Portugal, per 100,000 workers, across all economic sectors (NACE A_C-N). Compare against the EU average and note that sector mix drives much of the cross-country spread — construction, agriculture and transport carry structurally higher rates.

Data sourced from Eurostat via SDMX REST API. National reporting and compensation rules differ enough that cross-country levels are indicative only; a country's own series over time is the sounder comparison.
