　　Government has an objective to reduce the rate of fatalities and  serious injuries in the workplace by at least 25% by 2020. One of the  ways Government is achieving this is through the Health and Safety At  Work Act that will come into effect on 4 April 2016.

　　Driving health and safety performance improvements in your agency

　　Government agencies have a lead role in ensuring we meet the  Government’s target. As procurers, we can have a significant influence  on the health and safety practices of our agencies and suppliers.

　　Principled approach to health and safety and procurement

　　The new Act provides an ideal opportunity to consider how you can  support an organisational culture to achieve better health and safety  outcomes. The extent of change required in your agency will depend on  your current practices and the level of risk in the sectors you work.

　　New Zealand’s Government Rules of Sourcing provides the flexibility  for agencies to use procurement to drive health and safety performance  improvements.

　　Here’s what you should be thinking about when making improvements  to your procurement processes.

　　Ensure health and safety and employment standards are part of the  DNA and focus of every project.

　　Take a lead role in improving workplace safety.

　　Set expectations.

　　Ensure importance of workplace safety is reflected in the criteria  to select consultants and contractors.

　　Collaborate across the entire supply chain, including worker input.

　　Manage risks smarter.

　　Stay engaged from early in the planning phase to project  completion.

　　Support for agencies

　　We will support agencies to use their procurement processes to meet  their health and safety obligations and objectives. If you have any  questions and/or require support, get in touch with us at  procurement@mbie.govt.nz.
