Danger Sun Overhead

At DSO we know how crucial it is to look after each other every day when it comes to sun safety and heat stress.

Looking after our mates is what we do – which is why we have been so pleased to support recent events such as the Mates in Energy Golf Day and the BTG Footy Day supporting Mates in Construction.

Delivering the DSO program to BERT/ CIRT members has always been a key focus of the work of DSO. We couldn’t do it without the active support of Delegates like Pat Bromley from Woodford Youth Detention Centre Besix Watpac, Dutchy from Hutchies Logan Reserve School and Shaun Patterson from the Cairns Hospital Hansen Yunken project. DSO also delivered training at the John Holland Cairns Water Security Stage 1 Project today where we trained over 100 workers.

These are just some of the amazing Delegates who continue to support the work of DSO keeping their workmates safe in high-risk outdoor industries where skin cancer rates are the highest.

May is globally recognised as Skin Cancer Awareness month which for DSO means we double down on our efforts to raise awareness about prevention, detection and sun safety.

We have been raising awareness this month at various events, including the Gold Coast, Moreton Bay region and Brisbane Labour Day events. We have been training across various Educational Institutions (including TAFE and PICAC campuses) and also working with the CFMEU , ETU and PPTEU Delegates to bring the BERT/CIRT sponsored workshops to a number of Building and Construction projects.

Australia is the skin cancer capital of the world but fortunately, skin cancer is also one of the most preventable cancers. By sharing facts about the dangers of unprotected sun exposure and encouraging people to check their skin for warning signs, we can and will save lives.

But we can’t do this work alone.

So this Skin Cancer Awareness month make sure you contact DSO to book your workshop today!
