    A person died in an accident at a construction site when they were hit by a reversing excavator. The excavator was refilling an area with sand when the person, who was cleaning in the refilling area, was struck. There was no signal person present to direct the excavator and no barricades in the work area. The lack of a signal person and barricades during simultaneous cleaning and refilling operations likely contributed to the accident. Lessons learned include deploying signal persons for equipment, barricading swing areas, using hazard signage, prohibiting unauthorized personnel from equipment zones, and ensuring communication between operators and signal persons.
