Ensuring sound health and safety at ORO17 Music Festival
Safety First created the health and safety plans for ORO17 Music Festival and provided H&S advice and support to the organisers, including the creation of large signs for safety notices. The ORO festival was a huge success with a full moon, and thousands of happy revellers enjoying a safe, well-organised event.
Are the new Health & Safety laws making New Zealand safer?
On 4 April, the ‘new’ Health and Safety at Work Act will have been in effect for a year. So, what has changed - and where are we at? We see hundreds of cases in the courts every year, and some of them are… interesting to say the least! However, we still have a long road ahead of us before we see the positive effects of the changes in ultimately creating a safer society with a strong safety culture.
