Stands to reason doesn't it ?. We generally have a federal election roughly every three years and given that hardhats have a lifespan of three years the old hat is probably out of date since the last time they wore it.

I reckon I have more induction cards than what's in a 500 deck. And they are all the same.

Pre-start meetings and all the other minesite guff.

And security clearances...

At my last job in Canberra we couldn't keep up with all the crap, it was a constant of new/updated inductions, etc, etc....

A while back I saw some petty cool hi vis vests , not only the color , but a reflective x front and back , but the best bit was the border , flashing led's. Saw the dude a mile off in the twilight.
