Mental and physical health is of vital importance for workplace safety and for overall quality of life. Our drivers need to be supported to concentrate on the roads ahead and to make sure they arrive safely at the end of each day. How? Find out at http://ow.ly/ac2F50FRroJ

Happy Week!

The theme this year is Heal Country. Country is more than a place. Country is family, kin, law, lore, ceremony, traditions, and language.

Healing Country means embracing First Nation’s cultural knowledge and understanding of Country as part of Australia's national heritage.

The right to protect Country and culture is fundamental.

Destruction and desecration of our sacred lands or ancient sites - some of the oldest human occupation sites on the planet – is an enormous loss for both our nation and the world.

But to truly heal Country we have more to do. www.naidoc.org.au/get-involved/2021-theme
