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 assumed this was a joke. It’s an actual quote in the article. Holy cow.
“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’m amazed that that required hindsight
Japan is still a heavily honor-based culture, yes?
So this can be the company’s shameful new tagline for a while.
Why was the benefit of hindsight needed for that particular revelation
OMG that is an actual quote no waaaaay
