Have you been a victim of ERMS – a secret blacklist preventing some people getting jobs?I'm glad that I found this thread, because I've been suspecting something for a while, and all I get from recruiters is a denial. It is by pure luck that I have found this thread. So, I guess I will make my story public, even though it's an old one. A few years back I worked for Newcrest Mining doing I.T Support FIFO on their Telfer operation. O...

Fortescue's Nev Power plugs into energy debateConsumers pay for the excessive high cost of electricity because of all the price gouging and market gaming by generators, network operators and retailers.

Have you been a victim of ERMS – a secret blacklist preventing some people getting jobs?
I have reason to believe that I have been given a poor ERMS score and this has impeded my ability to gain employment for the past 2 years. How do I find out what has been written on my record, which is not available for me to see. Is there any legal course of action that I can take to have the record expunged or to gain damages or both? Please...

Free Skype counselling for lonely Irish offered in Australia and Canada
Many millions of Irish people have been leaving Ireland for hundreds of years. I emigrated from Ireland 35 years ago. Many of my childhood friends are scattered around the world. I can't speak for everyone, but I was too concerned about holding down a job, keeping a roof over my head and feeding my family to have time to be depressed, addicted...

Australia has a gold plated electricity grid - value equal to USA despite our sizeAround 1860 the enormous British investment in steam rail transport directly damaged the development of any competing transport systems.
