A Murraylands man has died in a workplace accident at Pompoota.

Paramedics and rescue services were called to a property near Thiele Road and Pompoota Landing Road around 2.20pm.

Tragically, the 41-year-old Jervois man had already died by the time they arrived.

A page sent to emergency services volunteers suggested the man, a contractor, may have been working with a post hole borer.

Safework SA will investigate the circumstances around the man’s death.

Police will also prepare a report for the state coroner.
