NB: please note that after our e-newsletter had been put together and the PDF created, the first sentencing under the Health and Safety at Work Act 2015 was released. Budget Plastics (New Zealand) Limited was fined $100,000 and ordered to pay reparation totalling $37,500 after an employee caught his hand in the auger of a machine while loading material for recycling. The machine amputated a portion of the employees’ hand. This decision will be of interest to many and we will have a commentary on this in the Summer/December edition of Rural eSpeaking.
