Worksafe New Zealand has begun to put information up on its website about the upcoming new legislation that forms part of the Health and Safety at Work Act, expected to be working law from April next year. Bearing in mind that everyone plays a role in Health and Safety at work, and everyone is expected to be aware of their due diligence and responsibilities, Nigel Griffith has put together an Update on the Health and Safety at Work Act, Sept 2014, which summarises information relevant to those working in our industry.

Just in time for Road Safety Week, staff member, Kyle Martin attended a week long Safe Systems Engineering Workshop run by the NZTA. The purpose of the workshop was to introduce the safe system approach and to provide knowledge and skills necessary to be a team member of a crash reduction study (CRS) and to carry out road safety audits.
