The Forum Pledge

Forum members sign a pledge to take personal responsibility for health and safety, and commit to becoming more effective safety leaders. Leaders who join the Forum are sent a copy of the pledge to sign and display in their organisation. This copy is counter-signed by the Minister of Workplace Relations and Safety.

I WILL:
Take responsibility for leading an organisation that enables people to thrive.

Lead the organisation to support a culture where health, safety and wellbeing are an outcome of the way the work is designed and done.

Stay as connected as I can to how work gets done in my organisation.
MY ORGANISATION WILL:
Commit to learning from our successes and failures, to improve our health, safety and wellbeing outcomes.

Involve our workers and contractors in designing work that allows people to thrive, and to fail safely.

Hold ourselves accountable before our peers, by sharing our health, safety and wellbeing outcomes.

Inspire our people, contractors, supply chain and customers to create healthy, safe and thriving workplaces.
THE FORUM WILL:
Use its members' combined skill, experience and resources to influence and advocate for thriving workplaces and thriving people in New Zealand.

Connect and support members and New Zealand workplaces to learn from each other's successes and failures to improve the health, safety and wellbeing outcomes for all New Zealanders.
