New Health and Safety regulations
The government has issued a draft set of regulations to support the new Health and Safety at Work Act. Through MBIE (what used to be the Dept of Labour) they require feedback on the regulations to ensure the new health and safety framework is practical and robust. The more of you that are interested and can find the time to make representations the better. I will be looking at it myself and if you wish to suggest things for me to say – please do.
Submissions are due by Friday 18 July 2014 and can be sent to HSWregs@mbie.govt.nz
