		<description><![CDATA[Grodscorp, post ANZAC day. 
&#8230;the country has spent the weekend getting misty-eyed over ANZAC day.
That’s fine and everything, but the reality is that many, many more Australians have died at work than in any war, and that globally the numbers of people dying in their workplace is staggering. Many more Australian families will have lost [...]]]></description>
