One of Devett’s key achievements was as the Project Co-ordinator for the SMARTcasual Association where he brought together young people with Unions, Businesses, Community Groups and Local and State Government to develop “Get SMART about Casual Work” a curriculum kit educating young people on their responsibilities and rights as casual workers.
