Despite having no formal training on how to operate an excavator, the director of a construction waste disposal company hopped into one to move it out of the way of a worker unloading waste from a skip bin truck. But while Kasi Seenivasan, 58, was operating the excavator,...

But after his company purchased one in September 2018, he would operate it on his own within his company premises in Jalan Papan in Jurong.

But at the place where the skip bin was to be emptied, the skip bin's door was blocked by an excavator parked nearby. The worker was taken to National University Hospital, where he died the next day. The cause of death was certified as a head injury. On Tuesday, MOM's director of Occupational Safety and Health Inspectorate, Mr Sebastian Tan, said the accident could have been prevented if a trained worker had operated the excavator instead.
