Health & Safety Management
Making Health and Safety Simple
Many businesses find workplace health and safety overly complicated and end up avoiding it as much as possible, until something happens!!
This webinar explains health and safety in simple terms, and help you prioritise where you need to focus.
Health and Safety Leadership
As they always say, developing, improving and maintaining a good health and safety culture in your business starts at the top.
This Webinar discusses what it means to be a ‘health and safety leader’ and how that leadership can influence health and safety in your business.
Worker Engagement
We often struggle to think of things to discuss at Tool Box or Employee Meetings when it comes to health and safety and end up talking about the same stuff every meeting (I can see the rolling eyes of the team from here!). This Webinar is designed to provide you with some good tools to successfully engage with your employees and contractors on a variety of different health and safety topics.
Incident Investigation and Reporting
Recently we have had a couple of companies approach us as a result of a serious incident. One company managed the investigation very well, the other one was struggling to know where to start, or see the value in completing one – because it was the ’employee’s fault’.
If you would like to learn the value of an investigation, and would like to know how identifying the Direct Cause, Indirect Causes, and even Contributing Causes can improve safety and how your business operates, then this webinar is for you.
Paper Cuts & Coffee – Safety in the Office
Are paper cuts the worst that can happen? What if we drink too much coffee? Can people really die of boredom?
All these questions and more answered in this enlightening area of health, safety and wellness that is often overlooked and understated – but just as important.
PeopleSafe Help
Story Telling
Behind every incident is a great story!
This webinar uses a scenario to go over the importance of telling Stories by reporting them directly into PeopleSafe, or by using the StoryAnywhere App. We will also cover what information is required, how to investigate stories and how the investigation links to injury prevention by reviewing and updating the Risk Register, Safety Plans and identifying other tasks.
Health, Safety and Wellbeing
Health and Wellbeing
As business owners and managers we often forget the health and wellbeing part of health and safety. This includes things like mental health, workplace bullying and intimidation, fatigue, healthy eating and hydration and the effects of exposure to substances etc. All of this can significantly impact on productivity, the potential for poor decision making and injury, increased absenteeism etc.
This webinar discusses these issues and some simple strategies to help you improve health and wellbeing in your organisation.
General Discussion on Health, Safety & Wellness
This discussion focussed on ‘What does good look like?’ with input from all webinar participants.
There was good discussion around Wellness, People, Risk Management, Engagement and Culture.
The discussion generated a good mind map for use by clients. There is also an A-Z poster to be used by clients to generate discussions at Tool Box Meetings, and a list of sample Health, Safety and Wellness Questions.
Mental Health
This Webinar is on Mental Health Awareness. Mental illness is largely an unspoken health issue, but it’s very common. With one in six New Zealanders diagnosed with a common mental illness at some time in their lives, your employees are highly likely to be affected – directly or indirectly – by a mental health issue.
This Webinar explores what this can look like, how this issue might impact on your employees (and you) and business, and strategies and resources available to assist you to manage this.
Risk Management
A Focus on Managing Risk
Are you confused about what is the difference between a hazard and a risk? Are you unsure about the level of response required to manage a risk? Many people get a wide range of mixed messages from health and safety professionals, contractors, clients, peers and articles and end up being totally confused.
This Webinar explains the difference between hazard and a risk and how to develop an adequate response to manage it.
Failing Safely
This Webinar is on Failing Safely. This looks at Human and Organisational Performance. It’s not looking at the individual worker and worker behaviour, or at the system and human factors, it’s looking at the connection between the worker and the system and covers assumptions and what is wrong with traditional approaches to health and safety.
Failing Safely – Episode 2
In the previous Webinar we talked about ‘Failing Safely’ – a new approach to health and safety. This month we will explore the practical ways you can make this philosophy work for your business, improving culture, behaviours and engagement.
Simple Steps to Manage Hazardous Substances in your Business
We have had several clients recently seek advice on how to safely manage hazardous substances in their business.
This Webinar will take you through some simple steps to meet both your legal requirements, and to keep your people safe. It will also introduce you to some great free resources now available through WorkSafeNZ to help on your journey.
JSA? SWMS? TA? SOP? – Making sense of it all!!
More and more businesses are asking for SOP’s, JSA’s, SWMS, TA’s etc., but there doesn’t seem to be any clear, consistent distinction made between them and it can be very confusing.
This Webinar clarifies what these mean and their benefits, what needs to be done to successfully complete them and the future of these type of documents.
Contractor Management
Contractor Management Presentation
We often get questions from clients regarding managing the health and safety requirements of contractors and sub-contractors, who is responsible for what, and how far do we need to go.
This webinar answers those questions and provide clear guidelines on managing contractor health and safety in relation to the level of risk they present.
Contractor Health & Safety Pre-Qualification
We have a lot of questions from clients regarding Health and Safety Pre-Qualification for Contractors (either for themselves as the Contractor, or from clients wanting to pre-qualify their Contractors).
This Webinar is designed to explain the purpose of Contractor Health and Safety Pre-Qualification, and provide tips on how to hopefully make it easy for you to complete the process.
