Current events:Fonterra stands down heavy truckies


Fonterra has had to stand down all their truck drivers above a certain weight.

 The company learned from a question that truck seats are only safe for people who way under 150 kilograms.
Fonterra had to stand down about 50 people.

Fonterra:
Is a New Zealand multinational dairy co-operative 

Stand down: 
Withdraw or resign from a position. 

My opinion: I think this really sucks for the truck drivers because they have to lose weight just so they can go back to doing their job, but I think it is better for Fonterra to do this so that their drivers safety isn't at risk.
