Health and Safety at Work

Operating a business in New Zealand can be difficult, and one thing that can make it even more difficult is work-related injury or illness, or death, which can result in unexpected costs, downtime, or the loss of a valued worker.

The Health and Safety at Work Act 2015 (HSWA) states that as a Person Conducting a Business or Undertaking (PCBU), you have a “duty” to look after the health and safety of all persons at your workplace, including all workers, contractors, sub-contractors, labour hire, apprentices, trainees, volunteers, visitors, and customers.

The HSWA also states that you have a “duty” to engage with your workers, their health and safety representatives, and their unions in the management of their health and safety on an ongoing basis.

Research in New Zealand shows that when all workers are directly involved in managing their own health and safety in the workplace, injury and illness rates and costs do reduce.

Complete and full compliance with all parts of the HSWA is critical to the long-term success of your PCBU (business).
