Health and Safety at Work Act 2015
New Zealand’s most up-to-date workplace health and safety legislation. The act and related regulations require all workers to receive the highest level of protection from workplace health and safety risks, as far as the employer can reasonably provide.
The act also introduces a new term, ‘Person Conducting a Business or Undertaking’ (PCBU), which is a broad term used to describe any type of modern working arrangement, where the company or employer has an obligation to create a safe work environment and protect all workers from physical and mental risks.
