• "Digital" OHSMIS - Occupational Health & Safety Systems used by companies in NZ?
    Our Council uses Vault - mainly only used for event reporting and presentation of risk registers. It is cumbersome and not generally liked in the organisation by managers. Damstra has recently taken over the ownership, so waiting to see if there are any improvements in the pipeline.
  • What vaccinations do you give your staff and why?
    We test for immunity for Hep A+B. For working in/around water/wastewater.
  • ICAM Investigation Course
    I've done the course and found it helpful - was also done through Impac. We are also rolling out M-ICAM (a one-day cut down version) across the organisation to set up an event learning team and I can recommend Coachio for this - Andy did a fantastic job and is a very engaging trainer.

    Hi Peter...thanks for response. Could you please change mine? I just need my surname removed (noticed that others don't usually use theirs). Thanks.

    Hi Admin- how do you change your name that is displayed? Looked under options but can't figure it out.
    Thanks.
  • Paracetamol in First Aid Kits
    We removed issuing Panadol etc a few years ago following some back and forth discussions at the H&S Committee. Since then, following an incident of suspected heart attack and the ambos recommending that if anyone had any Asprin to give the person under their tongue. No one had any, so we bought a packet and keep it with the AED with a note saying along the lines of "only issue if prescribed by a medical practitioner/ambulance staff".
