SafetyNet 578

June 2, 2021

Welcome to another week's edition of SafetyNet.  

It is with great sadness that we inform our readers that since our last edition another worker was killed when he was struck by machinery at his workplace. 

In other 'breaking news' - Melbourne is in lockdown for another 7 days. If you, like many hundreds of thousands of Victorians, are working from home, check out the information on our site here
