Article is missing some key details. Every industrial robot that I've seen has at least a line painted in the floor, or more often a physical barrier, and workers are required to stay behind it when the robot is powered on. Did this factory not have such basic precautions, or did the dead worker violate protocol, or did another worker turn on the robot at the wrong time?

Korean versions of the article have more details. He was from a robot maintenance company visiting the factory to perform a software update. He was working on the robot alone and checking the sensors when the incident happened.
