Chris,

I take it you are going to go through all of the other job adverts placed on this site and put the same caveat. I must say that I find your attitude somewhat sad, while I agree with the general thrust of the guidelines, what is wrong with endeavouring to provide fellow safety professionals with the opportunity to apply for an appropriate position?

I suggest you are interpreting the word commercial in too literal a sense and one has to wonder what motivates you to make such a comment in the first place. Is it not sensible to marry up those seeking work on this website and those who have the jobs - or do you begrudge them the potential opportunity?
