The Health and Safety at Work Amendment Act comes into force on 1 April 2027, bringing the most significant changes to New Zealand's health and safety framework in a decade. Through our partnership with EMA, employers can attend the Health & Safety Roadshow to understand what these changes mean in practice and how to prepare their business.
Led by EMA's employment relations and health and safety experts, the roadshow provides practical guidance, industry insights, and the opportunity to ask questions about upcoming legislative changes.
Upcoming roadshow dates include:
16 September - Manukau and Grafton
22 September - Whangārei and Albany
23 September - Hamilton
24 September - Tauranga and Rotorua
