Abstract
Estimated 640,700 persons suffered a work-related injury or illness in 2009-2010 and 444 lost their lives as a result in 2008-2009, in Australia
Very little is known about what proportion of accidents are directly attributable to the effects of AOD
Anecdotal evidence highlights issues of AOD and its association with safety risk on construction sites
