I know this is a relatively small piece of equipment in the heavy equipment industry, but drivers of even small bobcats are supposed to receive relatively high prevailing wages if they are working on a government construction site.

Digging grade beams next to piles with rebar sticking out is quite dangerous.
Digging grade beams next to piles with rebar sticking out is quite dangerous. Construction is a very dangerous work environment. It is no wonder accidents happen. Employees should not be afraid to complain about jobsite safety. Unfortunately I receive many calls each week from employees who believe they were fired for complaining about jobsite safety.
Job terminations due to safety complaints, or work injuries demand the attention of a qualified employee lawyer.
