Proof that getting to where you want to be is always better with an understanding of what the destination looks like, a map, and the right vehicle. In the wake of the industry-led HARMfree Transport and Logistics workplace safety and wellbeing initiative now achieving 300 sign-ons representing 80,000 workers, programme manager John Sansom has taken it to the road.
“HARMfree is now a significant community linked via a common and affective application, all at different stages along their journey, and all communicating and collaborating. It’s time to get those people together and network, continue to build relationships, share ideas, and experiences. They are making a difference.”
Following on from the initial meeting in Christchurch, 36 participants from the Auckland region met in Manukau on Thursday 28 August for a review, coaching, and networking event.
Kelly McLuckie, senior consultant in New Zealand and Australia for programme partner Success Formula was present and spoke about good work design, perspective and cultural change in the transport and logistics industry when looking at harm prevention.
HARMfree Connect webinars and additional in-person events will round out the rest of 2024, with plans to continue the series early in the new year. To stay updated, sign up for HARMfree or follow them on Facebook or LinkedIn.
