Launch of ‘Work Should Not Hurt Foundation’ Toolkit

Want to prevent and manage strains and sprains in your Construction business? Introducing the free online Construction Health & Safety NZ (CHASNZ) ‘Work Should Not Hurt Foundation’ toolkit!

Strains and sprains account for the most lost time in construction and is often the reason workers leave the industry early. The good news is that most strains and sprains are preventable and easily managed with the right systems and practices in place.

CHASNZ has created this toolkit to help you to easily implement your own workplace programme using proven evidence-based systems and practices.

The Foundation toolkit will allow you to quickly assess how you are currently going with prevention and management in your construction business and provides customised resources to help you improve what you are doing. These include the latest resources from SaferMe and ACC.

Once you have made some changes you can reassess your programme at any time and the tool will store your assessments for reviewing later. You can also choose the option to receive a customised email report with your results and recommendations for improvement. 

Lets get on top of what’s hurting our workforce —Try it out today!
