Worker dies after being struck by hose at Jurong Port Road worksite; MOM investigating

A 35-year-old worker died on Sept 11 after being struck by a hose connected to a compressed air pump at a construction site at 37 Jurong Port Road. The Ministry of Manpower has identified Keller Foundations (S E Asia) as the employer and occupier, and has ordered concreting works at the site to stop while it investigates. It is the second workplace death at a Jurong Port Road construction site in recent months, after a 23-year-old Bangladeshi worker was killed by falling scaffolding on Aug 3.
