What an honour to participate in this great event!
 
Every year 190 Australians working in the construction industry take their own lives; this means we lose a construction worker every second day to suicide. 

Construction workers are six times more likely to die from suicide than an accident at work. For our young workers, the facts are that they are well over two times more likely to take their own lives than other young Australian men.

A boy born in Australia in 2010 has a life expectancy of 78 years, while a baby girl born simultaneously could expect to live to 82.3 years old.
Men’s health, in general, doesn’t get enough attention as much as women’s. Men don’t talk to each other as much as women do, especially about their problems, including physical/mental health issues.
Right from the start, boys suffer more illness, more accidents and die earlier than their female counterparts.
Men take their own lives at four times the rate of women (that’s five men a day, on average). Accidents, cancer and heart disease all account for the majority of male deaths.

I spent the best time of my life at two UniSA centres: Centre for Environmental Risk Assessment and Remediation (CERAR) and Cooperative Research Centre for Contamination Assessment & Remediation of the Environment (CRC-CARE)”.

The evening was a bittersweet event for many in attendance, as Elisabethe has been with the Association since 2008, and has been instrumental in achieving the level of success it currently enjoys.

The Honourable John Howard, MP

National Environment Protection Measures (NEPM) is a standardised approach for the assessment of site contamination in Australia. Most of the contaminated sites I worked on in this country presented differences. However, the approach for assessing them was/should be the same. Consistency in the approach should be exercised by all contaminated sites investigation specialists/scientists/engineers/consultants/advisors, although different techniques or levels of detail may be applied at different sites (site specific). My dear colleagues! Please just remember that NEPM (from A to Z) values are not CLEAN-UP or REMEDIATION values: they are numbers where further investigation/assessment is required ONLY if exceeded. It is crucial to remember this. Please feel free to comment. Good luck everyone.

NEPM The Holy Book !

Always Keep This In Mind !
