A woman from Essex whose brother was killed while working on a construction site, is calling for a change in the culture of the industry.

David Green died in October 2016 after the dumper truck he was driving toppled over whilst he was working on a site in Lawford near Manningtree. He wasn't wearing a seatbelt, but if he had strapped himself in, it was likely he would have survived

According to the Health and Safety executive, construction workers are three and a half times more likely to be killed on the job than in other industries. Last year there were 43 fatalities across the UK.
