Protecting Worker Drivers

It's amazing to think that nearly 40% of outdoor workers still aren't properly protected from the sun in Australian workplaces, but a recent Cancer Council Australia study has shown just that. Some employers are still not fulfilling their duty of care to protect their workers from the health risks of UV radiation. For workers who spend a large part of the day behind the wheel of a vehicle, a Joopy Sun Shade goes a long way to protect the driver's face and neck from the sun's harmful UV rays.
