Dreamworld parent company Ardent Leisure faces three charges over deadly ride accidentDreamworld's parent company Ardent Leisure says it has been charged over the 2016 theme park tragedy that killed four people when the Thunder River Rapids ride malfunctioned, causing two rafts to collide at the Gold Coast theme park. Good! Good friend, was asked to tender for the maintenance on key equipment at this business. Declined, as said; 'the safety culture was 'toxic' and it was about how 'cheap' can you do maintenance on the key equipment'. Certainly not interested in safety. Sadly, they will now. Until the first ceo starts doing some lengthy prison time nothing will. Change. Senior managers just walk away with all their entitlements and start a position somewhere else.
