Health & Safety

The Health & Safety At Work Act came into force on 4 April 2016.

Now there is now a greater accountability for businesses and individuals, and a greater requirement for everyone (including contractors) on site to work together to stay safe.

The Readymix Sector Group is committed to assisting Members improve their H&S practices, and has taken the lead for Concrete NZ by preparing resources targeting this important area.

Subjects covered include managing blowback, cement silo safety, concrete truck bowl retaining mechanisms, concrete truck driver hand signals and traffic management when delivering to site.

 BE AWARE. BE ALERT.


    Readymix Sector Group members have made available some recent Health & Safety incident alerts.
