SINGAPORE – An Indian national fell to his death while carrying out housekeeping works on Thursday (Nov 14), the Ministry of Manpower (MOM) said on Saturday.
MOM said the 30-year-old man went through a partition board, falling from level 1 to basement 1 at 360 Balestier Road – the address for Shaw Plaza.
The worker, who was not identified, was employed by Express 21. The company works on electrical engineering and structured cabling projects for buildings, among other things.
MOM said investigations are ongoing and all work within the worksite has been stopped.
The number of workers who died as a result of a fall from height declined from 24 in 2009 to eight last year, partly due to the Government’s and industry partners’ concerted efforts to raise awareness and train workers.
