This week SafeWork NSW's prosecution of Qantas will conclude over the targeting and standing down of trained health and safety representative Theo Seremetidis at the start of the pandemic. The week had been set aside for the District Court of NSW to hear Qantas' defence. However, the airline's counsel had no witnesses to call, therefore final submissions will be made from today until Friday. The first-of-its-kind prosecution was launched following criminal charges laid by the NSW safety regulator over the targeting and standing down Theo Seremetidis as a result of his advice to workers on their rights to cease unsafe work.
