25.01.2022 Has Melbourne's Covid19 explosion in connection with poorly trained & paid, under-the-radar hired hotel security workers made you realise just how bad exploiting workers is for your health, everyone's health, your bottom line and everyone's financial well being? Then you need to know about our states' labour hire authorities. Here in Victoria, if you contract hire your workers, you're legally required to do it through an approved labour hire firm (see link below). Unfortunate...ly, not every state & territory has them. Unfortunately, having a jurisdictional labour hire authority has become policiticised as somehow anti-enterprise. This is rubbish. They benefit good enterprise. Every state should have them, and there should be corresponding enforcement with support for businesses to get properly on board - carrot and stick. https://labourhireauthority.vic.gov.au/ See more

25.01.2022 As we start adjusting our workplaces to be Covid-19 safe so we can go back to work, our more vulnerable workers, and the companies they work for, are at greatest risk. Company size, industry sector, worker population and location (whether local or offshore) are all factors. Whether or not your company is legally required to address slavery in your systems, now is the time to speak with your suppliers (on and off-shore) about what they can do, and how you can encourage best practice.

18.01.2022 Our favourite fashion vlogger Justine Leconte shares home truths on what fashion brands are doing while they think our backs are turned during Covid19. Remember: most are required to tackle slavery in their systems. We must understand and call out misleading PR. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zZ9unodtE5Y

16.01.2022 What picture do you have in your head when you think of modern slavery, or extreme exploitation? We photographed this group of car washers down the street in our hipster neighbourhood. 4 men, 1 car, $69 for full detailing, inadequate protection against toxic chemicals. Slavery looks as banal as this. The deception, coercion and violence that keeps people in slavery and other extreme exploitation are usually hidden. The fantastic article attached explores the dangers of using ...artistic perceptions rather than reality to depict complex problems blighting us today. Reenactment photography can mislead us. Its sensationalism can cause compassion fatigue. Survivors and respectful truth-tellers must use originality and creativity to replace stereotypes and tired cliches. https://www.nottingham.ac.uk//imagery-and-anti-slavery-rep See more

11.01.2022 Check out this brilliant 'palm oil free' add from Aussie confectionery company Darrell Lea. It rightly features an orangutan...but vitally talso he palm oil industry is strongly associated with slavery and other extreme exploitation. Slavery and habitat destruction go hand in hand. Props to Darrell Lea. https://www.youtube.com/watch

02.01.2022 Just one bus stop in inner Melbourne. This rotating sign and the usually-bustling main road next to it will tell you much about cultural values of inner-city dwelling Melburnians, Melburnians generally, Victorians and Australians. And all the cultural sub-groups around and in between them. How many cultural cues can YOU find?
