CSM are experienced and respected health & safety professionals, providing practical risk management services and systems.
CSM was formed specifically to help companies develop their culture of safe operation. Centred in Tauranga, we have links with consultants throughout New Zealand.
Safety culture is often described as 'how safely employees conduct themselves when the boss is away'. It is formed by the standards we follow automatically. And for a business, attaining a good safety culture not only saves money through less downtime (it is estimated that $4.6 billion is lost in productivity from employee disengagement and absenteeism each year), but also if your employees naturally act safely, your worries of potential prosecution through non-compliance are greatly reduced.
A safe working culture promotes employee trust and job satisfaction. The workforce operates collaboratively, forms constructive relationships and achieves shared objectives.
Through aiding organisations develop their safety culture, CSM also helps them meet their responsibilities under the Health & Safety in Employment Act and possible enrolment onto the ACC Workplace Safety Management Practices (WSMP) or Workplace Safety Discount (WSD) programmes, which actively reduce levy contributions. And with the prospect of experience rating being introduced to determine future workplace insurance premiums and health & safety commanding an ever increasing part of tender requirements, upping your health & safety game now has benefits for your conscience and your wallet tomorrow.
