I simply can’t fathom an instance where a Policeman would not blink an eye if the street where a car accident[…]
This situation at the Adelaide Desalination Plant just keeps getting uglier as time goes on. The contemptuous disregard for occupational health and safety legislation by the very people we rely on to implement these laws has become the saddest irony of all. It is the classic case of; Do as I say, not as I[…]
I would very much like to take a newspaper, walk through the doors of Parliament House and slap the thing over a select few craniums – more than a few actually! Seriously, when it comes to Occupational Health and Safety, not much has changed in the 7 years since VOID came to be. We had[…]
