How we direct our efforts most effectively is often about getting good signals from our business as to what is going right and what needs exta attention.
CHASNZ has made these simple but effective tools available for free use across the New Zealand construction sector. They can be used to gain an independent view as to how health and safety is perceived by the workforce and used as tools to pinpoint risk areas and drive improvement.
Our Vision is to shift health and safety in the construction industry from inconsistent compliance to consistent competence, and to have healthy and safe workers as a natural outcome of good work.
Better work, better lives and a better future.
Construction Health and Safety New Zealand (CHASNZ), is a charitable trust developed in 2018 with the objective of improving the lives of construction workers by raising the standard of health and safety culture and performance across the construction industry in New Zealand.
The CHASNZ Board, comprises Independent Chair, Roger McRae and senior industry leaders from across all construction sectors, working together they are the collective voice for industry addressing the need for a sustainable change across the sector, identifying areas of risk, providing guidance on best practice health and safety and ensuring health and safety is an intrinsic part of doing better business.
Over the past five years injury claims have steadily increased and sadly 37 people have died on our building sites, making construction sites the deadliest workplaces in New Zealand.
This increasing injury rate is a key reason why ACC has entered into a five-year partnership with CHASNZ allowing an increase in efforts across health and safety promotion and protection initiatives, enabling a reduction in the harm caused by occupational illness and injury in the construction sector. We want ALL our construction workers to go home safe and well at the end of each day.
Working Wise are leaders in health and safety. We help people become skilled and engaged in health and safety by providing guides, systems, tools, and support that achieves healthier and safer workplaces which comply with NZ health and safety laws.
