Did you know that soft tissue injuries, such as sprains and strains, comprise most of work-related injury claims in New Zealand? While almost half of the fatalities involved vehicles? And that psychosocial risks like high work demands, low job control, and experiencing offensive behaviour (e.g., bullying and harassment) are becoming more of a concern across all industries?
Health and safety at work is essential and obligatory for business owners like you, but others make the huge mistake of deprioritising this obligation early on, often leading to trouble and claims down the line.
Learn about your obligations as an employer, how to handle hazards and risks, and come away with practical knowledge of implementing comprehensive policies that promote health and safety at work.
Don’t miss the chance to ask industry experts your burning questions directly during the live Q&A.
In this webinar, we’ll discuss:
The Dual Nature of Workplace Hazards: Understanding how physical and psychological risks intersect in modern workplaces, and navigating your H&S legal obligations
Risk Assessment and Management Strategies: A practical deep-dive into identifying, assessing, and controlling workplace hazards
Emerging Psychosocial Hazards in Modern Workplaces: Highlighting the importance of supporting mentally healthy work by addressing psychosocial hazards as part of your legal obligations
