NZISM throws weight behind a call to review asbestos imports
NZISM is a proud signatory to the open letter calling for an urgent review of the import settings that allowed asbestos containing materials to be imported in children's toys and fire doors.
A Health and Safety Calamity in NZ - A Preventative Call to Arms
To mark the 15th anniversary of the tragedy at Pike River Mine, we asked leading criminal barrister and lawyer for the Pike River families, Nigel Hampton KC, to provide his reflections on Pike River and health and safety more generally. It was an exceptional session and the webinar recording is now available. Nigel has generously allowed us to reprint his comments in the newsletter.
Thoughts on the Pike River movie
I would recommend that all NZISM members see Pike River. The story of the families’ heroism and persistence in the face of first tragedy and then injustice is extraordinary.
