Occupational Health & Safety

Health and safety compliance is becoming increasingly complex and challenging. Our health and safety team can help ensure you comply with your obligations to provide a safe and healthy workplace to staff and others. We offer sensible advice on infringement notices and prosecutions. We can assist in serious harm investigations assisting with site investigations, witness interviews and working with Worksafe New Zealand.

In addition to legal expertise our Louise Foley has a NEBOSH general certificate in occupational heath and safety so can offer a broader knowledge of what is required in your industry to keep you and your workers safe.

Working Safer

Working Safer is aimed at reducing New Zealand’s workplace injury and death toll by 25 per cent by 2020. Leadership and action from businesses, workers and Government will be needed to achieve this goal.

The Health and Safety Reform Bill will create the new Health and Safety at Work Act, replacing the Health and Safety in Employment Act 1992. The Government’s intention is that the Bill will be passed in 2014, with the new Act coming into force from 1 April 2015.

For more information on meeting the requirements of the Act contact Louise Foley.
