A bobcat construction operator is uninjured, while a man who was standing on top of the bobcat suffered critical injuries in a mid morning construction accident in Bel Aire Kansas, near Wichita. Authorities say a 38-year-old construction worker landed on his head when he fell from the top of a bobcat. The worker was lying on the ground next to the bobcat when emergency crews arrived on the scene. The injured man was stabilized and transported to the hospital for a work related injury. Read more on www.kwch.com and see video footage of the bobcat construction accident site on www.kake.com. Workers compensation and possibly general liability coverage would be needed for this bobcat construction accident. By the looks of the photo, the construction site was a major remodel apartment building or new construction – both require insurance for workers. If the injured worker was the owner of a business he will likely be excluded from the policy – and not covered by workers compensation. In that case he would need personal medical insurance, and an Aflac type policy to cover him while he recovers from his injuries and returns to work.

A subcontractor died on site following a construction accident at Florida State University’s campus Monday. According to FSUPD, 25-year-old Travis Joseph Miller of Tallahassee was trapped between the building and a moving elevator at the construction site of the new Dorman and Deviney Halls on Woodward Avenue. Police responded to the construction accident just after noon Monday. Miller was already deceased when first responders arrived. The U.S. Department of Labor’s Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) began a construction accident investigation of Miller’s death after receiving notification from Culpepper Construction. According to Lindsay Williams, OSHA spokesman, the agency requires contractors to report casualties within eight hours. Investigators arrived on scene and spoke with Miller’s coworkers, managers and other witnesses on scene. Miller was a plumber working as a subcontractor for Culpepper Construction. Culpepper has been under OSHA review 9 times since July 2004. Most recently, complaints were filed against the contractor for worker falls in February with no citations filed.
