Kevin Oldham How safe is safe enough? A call to action.
Short presentation followed by discussion of need and feasibility of RiskNZ preparing guidance material for SID and other risk practitioners.
Professor Helen Lingard from RMIT University in Melbourne leads a program of research in the field of construction occupational health and safety and work-life balance. Her work balances theoretical, applied and translational research and focuses on addressing the practical challenges inherent in improving workers’ health, safety and wellbeing in the construction industry.
In 2014 Professor Lingard co-authored Safety in Design for the Australian Constructors Association. This seminal report summarised the findings from a five-year international benchmarking study of construction health and safety in Australia, New Zealand and the United States.
With WorkSafe New Zealand planning to introduce similar requirements in New Zealand Professor Lingard provides a timely summary of learnings from Safety in Design research and some observations from the Australian experience of implementing SID.
SID will apply not just to buildings, but to what’s inside them, including machinery. SID processes will quickly become a benchmark for how safety and risk are managed, which will pervade other sectors.
This is the future!
