enterprises – that entail dangerous activities.303 In such situations the same Court has held that states should implement a legislative and administrative framework that makes it possible to deter threats to the rights to life and humane treatment.304 203. In the case of Öneryldiz v. Turkey, the European Court determined that the obligation to respect rights, primarily the right to life, includes the positive duty of the state to safeguard the rights of persons under its jurisdiction, especially in the case of industrial activities which, by their very nature, are dangerous. The European Court added that in those cases, the concession of licenses should be governed by the creation, operation, safety, and supervision of the activity, and the interested parties should be required to take practical measures to guarantee the effective protection of those citizens whose lives may be threatened by the inherent risks.305 204. Of special interest is what the European Court held in the case of Vilnes and others v. Norway, in which it noted that underwater fishing is a high-risk labor activity.306 Accordingly, the states should regulate the licenses, operations, safety measures, and supervision of that activity.307 In addition, the states should adopt positive measures to ensure the safety and health of the divers.308 3. Analysis of the international responsibility of the State for the deaths, physical lesions, disappearances, and disabilities of the victims 3.1 On the victims who suffered accidents and/or died immediately related to deep-water diving 205. As established in the facts proven, 34 victims 309 suffered accidents due to the deep water diving they did, and which caused them to suffer decompression syndrome. This has been corroborated by the documentation available on each victim, including, in many cases, medical certificates or the descriptions in administrative labor proceedings that were not controverted by the State. Of this group of persons, 12 divers310 died in the moments immediately after the accident. 206. As was established in the section on context, the Miskito divers recruited to work on fishing vessels, as they received no training on diving or on the limits of submersion and the safety measures that should have been adopted when they were engaged in deep-sea diving. In addition, from the context it appears that the fishing vessels did not comply with the safety measures, either preventive or for immediate reaction in the face of possible accidents. Among the measures not complied with, according to information on the context, the following merit special mention: (i) the use of alcoholic beverages and drugs by the divers, encouraged by the captains of the vessels; (ii) the lack of appropriate diving equipment for deep-sea diving; and (iii) insistence and abuses committed by the captains of the vessels for the divers to submerge to depths that put their life and integrity at risk.
