A contractor that was rushed to hospital last week following an accident at the Kiama Village redevelopment has been discharged from hospital.
A spokesperson from Growthbuilt confirmed the good news to The Bugle that the worker involved was discharged from St George Hospital on Friday 28 July, just a day after the accident.
It’s understood the worker fell through a roof on 27 July. SafeWork NSW are currently investigating the incident.
The worker was employed by Noppen Group and was working under Urban Core at the time of the accident.
The worksite remains closed until further notice, as well as the BWS and Woolworths popup shop located within Kiama Village.
However, Kiama Health Pharmacy is still open. Staff told The Bugle that the Woolworths popup store was planned to reopen on 3 August.
