Beyond Compliance – Building a Proactive Safety Culture

Join us on June 10th for an immersive in-person experience that will revolutionise how you approach workplace safety. This event is designed to shift safety from a mere compliance checkbox to a thriving organisational culture.

We need to shift the dial on New Zealand's track record for workplace safety. With the upcoming programme changes to health and safety legislation, it's time to lead from the top in your business by connecting compliance with culture to create an environment where safety is valued at all levels.
