Maria Allport was in a warehouse, packing stock for Aldi supermarkets when she hurt her back. Nothing some painkillers and rest won't fix, she thought. But as it turns out, Maria had sustained serious spinal injuries. She didn't know it at the time, but her life was about to unravel.
In the first episode of season two, Restitution focuses on the number one cause of workplace injuries in Australia. It's an issue that rarely makes the headlines but can have devastating consequences.
