Nāu te rourou, nāku te rourou, ka ora ai te iwi
With your food basket and my food basket the people will thrive
This whakatauki talks to community, to collaboration and a strengths-based approach and that’s what we are going to do at Ngati Whatua Orakei Marae. The facts are that Māori workplace fatality rates are 19% higher by industry and 10% higher by occupation than for non-Māori. These H&S outcomes are due to lack of cultural worker engagement, participation and representation as well as higher representation in temporary employment arrangements in poor conditions and more hazardous work as well as many others. Can we do better? Of course we can. So this is an opportunity to come together as a profession and learn more about Māori culture, what’s being done for Māori in H&S, uplift our knowledge around this culture and hopefully leave inspired to do something a little different with your workplace whanau.
