Cessnock is the gateway to the Hunter Valley wine country, with the Pokolbin vineyards just west and a long mining and heavy-industry tradition running through Kurri Kurri and the surrounding pit towns. Hospitality workers in the cellar-door and tourism sector sit alongside miners, viticulturists, and transport operators, and injury patterns across the claim base reflect the region's physical workload.
