Last day at work
Last day at work
The very last day at work for digger Franci Domevšček at De Oranje Nassau II colliery in Heerlen, where he worked continuously from 1928. In his right hand he carries a clothing bag with his work clothes (1962).

A speaker of Slovenian and Italian, he later worked as an interpreter instructing new batches of Italian and Yugoslav workers during their training. In addition, he supervised immigrant mineworkers at introductory meetings and visits to doctors.
