To ensure that everyone involved in this dismantling process worked under decent conditions, a control operation was conducted by the Financial Control of Illegal Work on Monday (24.7.). This operation was supported by state police forces and the Düsseldorf Foreigners' Office, with the city of Düsseldorf also conducting checks on occupational safety.

This scrutiny led to a striking 37 potential minimum wage violations, 14 probable instances of social benefit fraud, 10 possible infractions against the duty to record working hours, and two violations of the requirement to carry valid identification documents.
