Rethinking our approach to physical activity at work. It’s not just about avoiding injury but having a positive effect on health.

I’m sure I’m not the first to be confused that we fund a $600m uneconomic donation for a gas power plant at Kurri Kurri that the market didn’t need or ask for… Yet we have no money for free rapid tests and “the private market should cater for demand”? 🤷🏼‍♂️
