IN THIS ISSUE:
They Said It"Please keep that picture safe…. I still have a pic of you with the wansie that I will be forced to use in my defence, should the need arise." - Vanessa Ronald, BBF Safety Group, of an unplanned evening get-together of A-OSH exhibitors and visitors at our hotel during which she changed from work clothes to wansie for warmth. Regrettably, I can't share images with readers for the reason above, which is on the same principle of 'mutually assured destruction' as nuclear deterrence. However, picture a unicorn in striped pastel shades... "My research and that of medical colleagues in KZN points to data showing that 25% of South Africa's adult population is diabetic. This affects our workforce. So often the education and treatment comes too late to prevent amputations. It's a ridiculous situation." - Podiatrist Dr Anette Thompson, Durban, KZN, SA, in a presentation at the A-OSH exhibition in Midrand, Gauteng, last week.
