Workplace Health & Safety
Is your business compliant with the Health & Safety requirements?
In recent years New Zealand's workplace Health & Safety landscape has changed dramatically. Having a Health & Safety management programme is now an essential and mandatory aspect of running a business.
To meet the demands of the legislation we brought specialist Health & Safety Consultants onto our team. We can work with you to review or develop your Health & Safety systems to ensure you are compliant, whilst still meeting the needs of your business.
Our Health & Safety Consultants can:
- Carry out workplace Health & Safety visits, site audits and gap analysis
- Investigate accidents and incidents
- Analyse accident and incident statistics and implement reduction solutions
- Review or develop workplace Health & Safety management systems that are proportionate to the risk that your business presents
- Develop Health & Safety plans
- Carry out hazard identification and management
- Implement Health & Safety inductions with team members
- Develop Health & Safety training specific to your business
- Develop employee wellbeing programmes e.g. resilence and stress management training
- Carry out ergonomic workstation assessments
- Help you reduce the cost of injury management, lost time and ill health
