CONSTRUCTION FATALITIES APRIL 2011

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.

Our analysis of the HSE reports and press coverage suggest 4 deaths occurred during work on construction projects in April 2011. These were:

  1. 07/04/2011 Callum Osborne - fall from height;
  2. 12/04/2011 Graham Needham - fall from height;
  3. 18/03/2011 Matthew Quigley - crushed by machinery; and
  4. 23/04/2011 Noel Maine – asphyxiated.

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.
