SINGAPORE – A 30-year-old Indian construction worker died on Thursday in a workplace accident at the site of the Changi East project, which includes the construction of Terminal 5 and an additional runway for Changi Airport.
The worker was operating a skid-steer loader – used to move or load materials – when he was hit by a broken component within the cabin.“MOM is investigating the incident and has instructed the occupier to stop all machinery operations at the worksite,” said the spokesman, adding that all machinery and equipment should be used and maintained following the manufacturer’s recommendation.
The joint venture is between Hock Lian Seng Infrastructure and the former Sembcorp Design and Construction, which was acquired by the Chip Eng Seng Corporation in 2019.Checks on their websites show that the joint venture was working on the development of Changi East to effect Changi Airport’s three-runway operations.
The machine – a vibratory roller – is used to compact soil, and was part of land preparation and ground improvement works for the project.
