MANILA, Philippines — Labor Secretary Silvestre Bello III has ordered a labor safety inspection of the Skyway extension project after a construction accident killed at least one person and injured four others on Saturday.

A steel girder or support beam from a portion of the Skyway freeway in Muntinlupa fell on vehicles on the East Service Road.

Skyway contractor EEI Corp. said a crane that was being positioned for its next task tilted and fell on the girder.
