Health & Safety Programme
Health & Safety Programme
The Restaurant Association’s Health and Safety Programme provides health and safety guidance and tools for your hospitality business. The information contained in this package is based on the requirements of the Health and Safety at Work Act 2015 and has up-to-date information based on recent amendments.
The Act marked a change in New Zealand’s health and safety landscape, putting a greater responsibility on everyone when it comes to health and safety at work.
A key principle of the Act is to give workers the highest level of protection against harm to their health, safety and welfare from hazards and risks that come from their work. The hospitality industry might have lower risks than some other industries, but there are still serious risks and hazards that need to be managed. The purpose of this Health and Safety programme is to help businesses and their workers to navigate their obligations and keep everyone healthy and safe at work.
The programme is is designed to both provide the correct documents, forms and policy’s but also to inform and educate so that by the time the programme is finished you will have both a full H&S Document customised for your business but also the knowledge and understanding of what is required. The programme can also be used to educate your staff about the act and help train potential Health & Safety reps.
It is here to support you in the journey to managing compliance with the Act and creating a safe and healthy workplace.
