We just got our first charges in South Australia under our new Industrial Manslaughter laws.
Lachlan Carslake’s life was apparently worth less than the cost of a $50 full face shield to Geoff and Winnie Philips.
Remember: Your employer, no matter how chummy and friendly is a piece of shit that will throw your life away for a few dollars.ALL EMPLOYERS WILL DO THIS, NO EXCEPTIONS.
It absolutely is not all employers lol, my last one, before I became an independent contractor working for them for extra flexibility, is more or less responsible for me still being alive.
Was in a very, very bad place and wasn’t being a good employee whatsoever as a result, many companies would’ve fired me and it would’ve been completely justified financially and legally. They offered to help me out instead. If I’d been fired, I would’ve honestly considered offing myself.

I’m amazed that that required hindsight
OMG that is an actual quote no waaaaay
Why was the benefit hindsight needed for that particular revelation
“We are sorry for your loss. Please accept this 20% voucher (usable on purchases above 30k yen)”
company: pulls a new employee out of the box and blows off the packing peanuts
“oh yeah, here’s $1M or whatever, price of doing business.”
I assumed this was a joke. It’s an actual quote in the article. Holy cow.
Japan is still a heavily honor-based culture, yes?
So this can be the company’s shameful new tagline for a while.
