I can't comment on the specifics of the legislation and regulations referred to by crush depth, but I know an appeal to emotion ( school children) and an Ad Hominem attack when I see one.
Furthermore, as Crush Depth suggests, if workplace safety laws were applicable to aviation, ALL Aviation would cease permanently for good.
To put that another way, it is precisely because aviation risks cannot be managed via conventional prohibitions that we have CASA and the regs.
To put that another way, that's why ATSB examines accidents and not workcover - it's totally outside their scope.
I suggest CD that you provide some facts please.
