Poll: Driving drowsy causes 20% of accidents - have you fallen asleep at the wheel before?

Darren from Parnell

A recent Australian study found that 20% of car accidents were caused by drowsy drivers and 1 in 6 drivers admit to falling asleep at the wheel (www.drive.com.au...). How do you solve this? It's a mixture of medical issues (e.g. sleep apnoea), physical issues (e.g. tired muscles), mental … View moreA recent Australian study found that 20% of car accidents were caused by drowsy drivers and 1 in 6 drivers admit to falling asleep at the wheel (www.drive.com.au...). How do you solve this? It's a mixture of medical issues (e.g. sleep apnoea), physical issues (e.g. tired muscles), mental issues (e.g. stress), and lifestyle choices (e.g. staying up too late). A solution is to do some online training, e.g. www.drivingtests.co.nz... to make a start in managing fatigue and your sleep, then see a sleep psychologist or sleep surgeon if a more detailed diagnosis is required. There are also resources published by WorkSafe, NZTA and SiteSafe as well as various unions and advocacy organisations that are specific to different industries and jobs. But what is your story? Have you fallen asleep while driving, even if just for a few seconds?

What growth could your business achieve if it had more working capital?
Cash flow is the “life blood” of any business and it is crucial to ensure this remains positive to create a sustainable and profitable business that can retain and attract good staff while meeting the ever-increasing costs of compliance.

If a business has cash tied up in existing assets or is looking at using cash reserves to pay for the acquisition of new assets then the key question that should be asked is what is the “opportunity cost” to the business of not having these funds available for working capital i.e. what additional revenue could be generated if these funds were used to increase production or purchase more inventory?

Having a finance provider who can genuinely help you with structuring appropriate finance for new assets or help you release equity from your existing assets may mean the difference between stress or success in your business.

This is a rare opportunity for you to get your hands on a value-for-money quality IKEA kitchen, directly imported from Europe at heavily reduced cost and no shipping and import expense. The kitchen was ordered for a villa renovation where a new client came on board and had different requirements, nothing wrong with the IKEA kitchen - got one myself ;-)

A sample of the kitchen units and fronts can be viewed in Grey Lynn, the flat packs are currently stored in Parnell, ready for pick up. Please follow this link to see our listing. Any questions, please just ask! We can recommend installer too.
