A focus on silicosis that insidious disease that increasingly is stalking the young in work places as varied as tunnellers, concreters, kitchen bench makers and grave stone carvers. We hear from some of the speakers at the Injured Workers Day at VTHC and round it off with a word from CFMEU’s Gerry Ayres at the most recent May Day who spoke about the national Union campaign to protect workers from an early grave from silicosis.
