SINGAPORE – A worker died after being electrocuted while installing solar panels on the rooftop of a building on June 12 with a group of workers.

The worker came into contact with the cable and got electrocuted. He was taken to the hospital, where he later died that same day. It outlined six measures that companies should adopt to protect workers, which included insulating exposed electrical parts, as well as stopping electrical work during bad weather.
