Victoria's free e-newsletter for the construction, utilities, mining and
quarrying industries -- Safety Soapbox.
They are the equivalent of the HSE within the Australian State of
Victoria and I quote;
"Our weekly newsletter, Safety Soapbox, is our way of trying to
provide a regular and cost-effective means of communicating health and
safety news to people at all levels within the construction and related
industries. It has proved to be very popular. Although most of our 4,500
subscribers are in Australia, we seem to be attracting a growing number
of international subscribers, including many from the UK."
