WorkSafe New Zealand

About

WorkSafe is New Zealand’s primary workplace health and safety regulator. Our Chief Executive Nicole Rosie leads over 550 staff based across New Zealand who are working to lift health and safety performance in workplaces across New Zealand.

Story

New Zealand has unacceptably high rates of workplace fatalities, serious harm injuries and work-related disease and illness. We are working collaboratively to achieve a 25 percent reduction by 2020 of the workplace death and injury toll. Work is also underway to establish occupational health reduction targets.
Our focus is to embed and promote good workplace health and safety practices. We are also the regulator for electricity and gas safety in the workplace and home.
WorkSafe's approximately 550 staff are located in 20 offices across New Zealand.
We work closely with employers, employees and others to:
educate them about their workplace health and safety responsibilities
engage them in making changes that reduce the chances of harm
enforce workplace health and safety legislation.

Mission

Getting you home healthy and safe. That's what we're working for.
