Presented by Safewise and Tracey Murphy
A practical workshop with Safewise to help small and medium community organisations understand, strengthen, and simplify workplace health and safety.
Health and safety is more than compliance — it is about protecting people, strengthening trust, and creating workplaces where staff, volunteers, visitors, whaanau, and communities can feel safe and supported. For community organisations, a clear and practical health and safety system helps reduce risk, meet legal responsibilities, support good governance, and ensure valuable resources stay focused on the mahi that matters.
Safewise has been supporting small to medium organisations for nearly 18 years, offering realistic, hands-on advice that fits the size, culture, and needs of each organisation. Their consultants are well trained, connected to the New Zealand Institute of Safety Management, and listed on — or working towards — the HASANZ register.
