SafetyNet 538
Welcome to the June 24 edition of SafetyNet.
It is with great sadness that we note that another Victorian worker was killed this week.
Just as we thought we were getting through the COVID-19 pandemic well, Victoria has in the past week suffered a set-back with the number of new infections being in the double digits every day. This has meant some restrictions being re-introduced or tightened, and advice on working from home extended.
