Re: Deaf woman wins compensation over covid briefings.
 

I cannot understand why I and my colleagues at the time knew and understood this change way back when I was actually teaching BEFORE I retired. If I knew, how was there a failure to communicate?

If they didn't communicate this enough, maybe the limited publicity that they did do happened to reach you. Can you remember how you found out?

I'm going to guess here - because I can't honestly remember - that there would have been some mention of it on news programs or in the papers?

Maybe the Govt. should make sure that any future changes to 'anything at all' are clearly mentioned using 5 minute adverts every hour on TV (for a month), printed on the front page of every daily newspaper for a month (in easy to read format and 27 languages), and splashed all over every Facebook account for a full week.

They could also make it a legislation that all businesses with at least one employee display posters in prominent places, taxis & buses carry the information displayed on at least 2 sides, stickers are placed on all dustbins, and all organisations dealing with the disabled (of whatever severity) ensure all their 'clients' have been fully briefed on the forthcoming changes.

Sadly there will still be some who claim it's not their fault that they had no idea.

Every briefing was usually repeated on the actual new following these briefing usually not long afterwards. Also subtitles and available online to read the info.

Uts shocking really that this involves only two briefings not being signed out of the hundreds that took place.
