HRNZ Health & Safety Special Interest Network invites you to join Francois Barton, Chief Executive of the Business Leaders’ Health & Safety Forum, as he presents and interprets the State of a Thriving Nation report.
This session dives into New Zealand’s safety performance narrative - covering fatalities, lost-time injuries, and work-related health deaths - and shows how those outcomes translate into financial cost, human impact, and organisational opportunity. It will demonstrate how excellent safety isn’t just about compliance but underpins thriving people and thriving business systems.
What to expect:
• A compelling summary of the report’s key findings, such as harm data, incident trends, and economic implications
• Insights into what those findings mean for HR practice, wellbeing strategies, organisational resilience, and the bottom line
• Discussion of how HR and H&S functions can mutually reinforce each other for better results
• An interactive Q&A with Francois to help you connect the data and ideas back to your own workplace
If you have a specific question on this topic for Francois or the Health & Safety Network Committee, please email [email protected]
