Safety

Getting everyone home safe

A key part of our vision is to become the leading health and safety organisation in New Zealand.

That means a belief by all our people that every incident is preventable.

We want all of our people and the public to go home safe to their families every day.

There are a number of things we do to encourage a proactive approach to safety:

  • We have frontline Health and Safety Action Teams throughout the country highlighting issues and helping find solutions
  • We offer safety skills training with a focus on non-technical skills
  • We engage with our people through ‘Safety, Health and Environment’ work conversations.

Our train drivers share the highs and lows of their job – and explain why they feel so strongly about everyone needing to take safety seriously around railway tracks.
