Hi Mike,

There is another agency called Comcare, which looks after work place safety etc.. It is the government agency that needs to be contacted if their is a serious accident within the work place. They hire graduates, and I think they do it later in the year compared to other government departments.

Hey Summer, good spotting, I've added them into the list and they are an agency we'll be speaking to this year.
