BY OUR INDUSTRY
We’re all in this together. We want our woolsheds to be safer and better places to work. Climb aboard the Tahi Ngātahi Waka.
Toia mai te waka nei! Ma wai e to? Mau e to! Maku e to! Ma te whakaranga ake e to! Row this waka! Who will row? You will, I will, we all will!
This website has been a dream for us, as partners, for a long time. It’s taken a lot of teamwork, and some help from some other awesome people along the way. We’re individuals who have come together to make this a reality.
Tahi Ngātahi
NZSCA
We’ve teamed up with our
mates to make the woolshed
safer for all. Our members
will be looking to hire
certified staff, people
wanting to have a long and
happy career.
Federated Farmers
We’re keen to see injury
numbers on all parts of the
farms reduce, and this is one
way we can help by
supporting everyone who
works in the woolshed to
learn and work together on
how to be safe.
ACC
Your ACC levy helps
everyone be safe in the
woolshed and supports
anyone injured to get ack to
work as soon as possible.
Work Safe
If you are a farmer, a
contractor or a shearer
there are things you all can
do to manage the risk of
injury or illness in the
shearing shed.
Our Goals
Less Injuries
Most injuries are preventable, being part of Tahi Ngātahi means we can share what we know about how to reduce the number of injuries. We’re aiming to reduce injuries by 30%.
Less "red tape"
Another of our goals is to make employers’ lives easier. By getting your staff certified, you won’t have to repeat what they already know. We also show you how to do things, as well looking after some of the record keeping for you.
Showing we care
There are lives on the line. When something goes wrong a career can be sidelined, and that affects a LOT of people. We want to see everyone home safe, and back at work tomorrow. It’s that simple.
