Default Re: 2 Workers injured, company cops $17,500 fine

Eric if you think I've the time or the inclination to trawl through 8-9yrs of prosecution data for you mate...you are wrong! also I'm not really interested in changing your mind.

I'm not arguing about the responsibilities of the two guys in this case or any other, and they will loose entitlements as a result thats how the legislation works.

WH&S legislation is quite simple and straight forward if an investigation reveals that the company/employer did not have effective management systems in place to maintain WH&S then they will be fined...I don't have a problem with that.
