This morning on Triple M Brisbane’s The Big Breakfast, Marto took the lead on a really important issue, one that involves life and death in his tradie industry, the silicosis issue.
The team interviewed Brisbane’s Shane Perata whose brother, Gold Coast stonemason Anthony White, died on the weekend because of silicosis.
Shane himself has silicosis in its early stages.
It’s an epidemic affecting tradies and Triple M’s message is that a paper mask is not enough, tradies need the full-face masks.
