Workers' Inferno is based on real events, which took place at an Esso (a subsidiary of Exxon Corporation) operation at Longford, Victoria Australia on 25 September 1998.
Employees were working at the Esso gas production and processing plant, situated at Longford in Sale, when a gas plant ruptured and exploded, killing two of the workers and physically injuring others.
The initial explosion caused numerous other explosions and fires, which took two days to extinguish. Through a proclamation by the State Governor all gas supply, except for critical areas of the state, was shut-off.
This is the untold story of the lives of the workers and their families, whose lives were changed forever, as a result of the accident and subsequent efforts by the company to blame its workers for the accident during the Royal Commission into the explosion.
