As most of us look forward to Christmas, it’s important to remember the people who will still be working on the highway over the festive period. Road workers are doing their jobs, often in difficult situations and adverse weather, ensuring everyone can travel safely and get home to their loved ones. But let’s also remember, they're not just workers; they’re someone's family too, hoping to get home safe, just like you. Nobody deserves to go to work be sworn at, spat at, or threatened with violence. Sadly, instances of abuse towards road workers are on the rise. That’s why we’re supporting the ‘Stamp it Out’ campaign aimed at eradicating abuse of public-facing workers, including those that work on the highway. According to the campaign, 60% of all roadworkers get abused on a daily basis – this is not acceptable. This festive season, let's get everyone home safe. Next time you drive by roadworks, or come to a set of temporary traffic lights, we ask that you have a little patience and maybe give the team a friendly wave or just a smile. A little act of kindness can go a long way in making sure everyone, including our road workers, gets home safe for Christmas. If you’d like more information on the ‘Stamp It Out’ campaign, please visit: https://ow.ly/1q0a50UpZvV Thank you for helping create a safer, more respectful environment for everyone - After all, the true spirit of Christmas is about peace, love, and kindness 🕊 #BeKindThisChristmas #StopRoadWorkerAbuse #StampItOut

Starting tomorrow, all NSW public servants must return to the office full-time. The Minns government aims to rejuvenate Sydney's CBD and support local businesses hit hard by the pandemic. Business leaders are cheering, anticipating a much-needed boost in foot traffic and economic activity. However, this move sparks mixed feelings among employees who have thrived with WFH flexibility. Unions are on alert, ensuring the transition addresses employee needs, particularly for those with caregiving responsibilities. Is this the right move to bring life back to our cities? How will it impact workplace culture and employee well-being? Share your thoughts below! ⬇️

As we approach the Christmas period, remember that public holidays can impact your NDIS service hours and can chew into your budget. Review and adjust your plan now to ensure you don’t run short on support. Plan ahead. #supportservices #ndissupport #apoio
