All good points...
So its down to insurance ... and h&s
the Criminal Records thing... good point... but that means everyone..? Shurely Shome Mishtake.
On my recent volly site... I was already checked, and the YAC leaders were, however, If I had said that everyone else had to go through a criminal record check.. I can imagine the response.. even from those that had no record...
Duty of Care.. can be taken too far... and I could give you a hundred easy ways to subvert it.. it is good to think about it.. but perhaps can be taken beyond the reasonable.
I agree that finding a job suitable for people is a good thing... suggesting they have to be fit and healthy before even getting to that point is putting people who don't feel fit or healthy.. and as I say.. does that mean smoking? depression? a gammy knee? a sore back? (that would put most of us out of a job)
Would any digger accept that level of intrusion? :face-stir:
