Online CPD Module

Death and illness caused by long term health issues are extremely costly to society. Accordingly, WorkSafe is very focused on health-related risks, and interacts with Persons Conducting a Business or Undertaking (PCBUs) in a range of areas from asbestos to bullying and sexual harassment.

This module will cover PCBUs’ obligations in the health area and examine recent and forthcoming cases on health issues from New Zealand and Australia. It also outlines WorkSafe’s strategic approach for dealing with these issues.

Topics covered will include:

• An overview of WorkSafe’s Health and Safety at Work Strategy (focusing on health)
• Practical issues when handling workplace health cases, including asbestos, bullying, fatigue, mental harm and sexual harassment
• The overlap with employment law, in particular in relation to bullying and sexual harassment.

Please contact us if you use a dial up internet connection.

Learning objectives

After completing this module you will:

• Gain an understanding of WorkSafe’s enforcement approach.
• Understand some practical issues arising in workplace health prosecutions.
