"Don't underestimate this very important decision." Thanks to Stacey Shortall, Partner at MinterEllison RuddWatts Litigation for her wise words to CEOs, Directors and Officers during the Forum's first webinar on the Maritime v Gibson case today. Stacey, along with Olivia Lund, Partner at Duncan Cotterill provided some extremely valuable insights to Forum members about what they can learn from this guilty verdict - the first time a CEO of a major New Zealand company has been personally convicted of an offence under the Health and Safety at Work Act 2015. We'll continue this two-part webinar series tomorrow with insights from H&S governance experts Mike Cosman and Craig Marriott who will compliment the legal expertise heard today and unpack what effective due diligence in practice looks like for CEOs, senior leaders and directors. Forum members can register for this second webinar on our website: https://lnkd.in/gGFg2U-2

Business Leaders' Health and Safety Forum reposted this
Very insightful and provocative post from Dave Tilton on temporary traffic management….all the more timely as many of us will be on the roads over summer… As Dave notes, harm to workers on roads continues to worsen…so we need to reframe this discussion and our respective responses. Particularly resonant for me was this statement….“The Health and Safety at Work Act 2015 demands risk-focussed thinking—not adherence to a standard.” “More TTM” isn’t the answer…but neither is ongoing harm to hardworking people maintaining our roads.
Sometimes a stronger message is needed to address the landscape of TTM and the reality of how it is constructed. Right-sized TTM will happen through considered, deliberate, thoughtful risk-centric thinking. The more the 'risk-based approach to TTM' has evolved, the more it has become apparent that culture change is at the heart of this transformation. That culture change is not in the hands of TTM suppliers, it begins with how work in the road corridor is procured and contracted - setting the conditions for right-sized TTM. Parallaxx is working closely with several organisations to understand how they can adapt and embrace treating TTM as a risk management problem, not a compliance-centric one. Our expertise is centred on right-sized TTM, not more of it. This article is more direct than other pieces I have written on this subject. It is deliberately candid regarding what might be needed to make sure our system of TTM in NZ is safe and effective - and not a self-feeding organism. #rightsizedriskbasedTTM #temproarytrafficmanagement #workzonesafety #TTM
