"Sexiest Man" Plays it Safe

The Media Entertainment and Arts Alliance (MEAA) is turning to leading arts activists for it’s ‘Get Safe Now’ campaign in an effort to combat under reporting of injuries.

MEAA delegate and AFI award winning actor, Russell Dykstra, currently starring on stage with the Sydney Theatre Company's production of 'The Unlikely Prospect of Happiness', earned the "one of the sexiest men" accolade from official Michelle Hryce.

"The posters are devised to be placed on workplace notice boards, in dressing rooms, green rooms, on film sets and news offices, to remind people what to do in the event they are injured at work," says Hryce.

The campaign, which also features SBS newsreader Lee Lin Chin, leading Film Grip Ray Brown and Renee Isaacs from the acclaimed production of the Lion King, is specially designed for each section of the union's membership.

In conjunction with the posters the MEAA has produced stickers for members to refer them to the new MEAA occupational health and safety website, UnionSafe and the NSW WorkCover website.

The WorkCover Assist Project is helping to fund the campaign.
