Yesterday, I was with the teams from Saputo Inc. in Laverton Victoria.
Spoke to the day and afternoon shift crews and then did a 10pm session for the night shift team!

What a great bunch of workers and a great workplace. Everyone was receptive to my story, and a few employees shared their own "Near Miss" stories with me.

Thanks to Guy Horsburgh Price and Francis Lim for organising my visit. Simon Upstill, I'll be eating cheese for the next month.... Thank you. Jamie Harry keep up the great work.

Yesterday I worked for the Melbourne Market Epping in Epping Victoria.

I have been lucky enough to work with many different workplaces over the years, but I have never seen a workplace that is as "๐—•๐˜‚๐˜€๐˜†" as a fresh produce market early in the morning!

The number of forklifts, trucks, people, buggies and traffic was mind-blowing! And it's a credit to the Melbourne Market Authority to control the number of vehicles and people on site. I was impressed!

I shared my story of CHOICES with some of the MMA staff and we had great discussions about the consequences of workplace injuries.

Thank you to Nadine Faour for inviting me and to everyone who took some time out of your day to listen to my messages.

World Mental Health Day is about raising awareness of mental health issues and to encourage support of mental health worldwide.
This year in Australia the World Mental Health theme is 'Connect with your Community,'

Community is a central value to the CNB Safe team, we are not 'just' work colleagues, we are a family community.
We support each other and listen to each other to ensure we all feel heard and supported.

Be sure to connect with your community...it is essential for your Mental Health.

Weโ€™ve all felt tired at work โ€” but when does tiredness become a safety risk?

Fatigue is one of the most underestimated hazards in the workplace, and it can affect anyone, at any level.

This blog written by Michael Weston unpacks the real impact of fatigue and how we can all play a part in managing it.

This week I have been working with the crews from Endura Mining (recently transitioned from Federation Mining) at the Snowy River Mine in Ikamatua New Zealand.

Can I start by saying that if you were ever thinking of visiting NZ you need to stop thinking about it and DO IT! I drove from Christchurch to Reefton through some of the most breathtaking scenery I have ever seen.

Snow-covered mountains, lush green grass, rocky rivers, and flowing valleys... It's all here on the South Island. I was driving and had to stop several times to take it all in! It is beautiful!

But I am here is to share my story with the crews at the Snowy River Mine. And what great crews they are! The mine will be ramping up over the next 12-18 months to its operating capacity of over 200 employees, so it is important that the site starts with a strong focus on making sure no one gets hurt!

Over the last few days I have shared my story with most of the staff and management teams and had some great conversations around what safety really means!

Thank you to Mark Brown and Simon Delander for arranging my visit. It's so refreshing to see a new project with a strong focus on keeping people safe while they work.

I'm fortunate to have visited many hundreds of different workplaces over the years. I sit in front of groups of workers, supervisors, managers and board members, and I share my experiences and views on safety.

Most days, I can quite comfortably describe how a workplace incident changed my life!

Yesterday I struggled!

The 23rd of September is the date I got injured.

Yet, here I was in the Hunter Valley, only a short distance from the workplace I had been working at all those years ago, getting ready to share my story with over 200 people at Delta Electricity Delta Power and Energy's Vales Point Power Station.

I got through it, but there were a few times that I had to "Take a breath" and focus on the messages I wanted to share!

So here we are, years after my injury, and some of the thoughts and feelings I had yesterday felt like they had just happened!

It just goes to show that when someone gets hurt at work, it is not just a temporary thing; it changes your life for the rest of your life!

Thank you so much to Karen Prior, Emma Harmston-Ross, Marcus Cook and Billy Newham for inviting me to your Safety Day.

Stay Safe Australia
