CONSTRUCTION FATAL INJURY REPORTS OCTOBER 2010/11
Latest release of HSE records of fatal injury reports for construction projects 
HSE publish each month the in-year details of all deaths at work under their jurisdiction including those occurring on construction projects.
This information is ‘as reported’ by third parties and does not purport to be a formal statistical release.
The HSE reports and press coverage suggest 7 deaths occurred during work on construction projects in October 2010. These were:
16/10/2010 Martin Walton – electrocution- 18/10/2010 Andrew Lancaster – trapped in a collapsing trench
- 20/10/2010 Mihai Hondru – struck by a reversing vehicle
- 21/10/2010 Kevin Ruffles – struck by a falling structure
- 21/10/2010 Matthew Skeet – struck by a falling structure
- 22/10/2010 Edward Storrie – struck by a falling load
- 22/10/2010 Raymond Corner – fall from height
We use these details, in conjunction with press reports etc, to establish a picture of construction project deaths each month. Subsequent HSE investigation may determine that some are not reportable under RIDDOR.
