Does your approach to Employment Relations and Health & Safety feel like a checklist, or a commitment?

As a business owner, ER and H&S can easily become admin tasks: forms to fill, boxes to tick, policies to maintain. But for many Kiwi businesses, there is a better way to lead—one that draws on tikanga Māori principles to create environments where people feel truly valued, safe, and connected.

This webinar is designed for business owners who want to move beyond the minimum legal requirements and build a foundation of manaakitanga (care) and pono (integrity) in their teams.

The goal isn't to replace the law, but to enrich it. By centering tikanga, we find that the 'human' side of ER and H&S becomes much more natural and effective.

In just 60 minutes:

• Manaakitanga & ER: Navigate performance and "tough talks" through manaakitanga, ensuring every conversation upholds the dignity and mana of your people
• Kaitiakitanga & Safety: Transform Health & Safety from a paperwork chore to a shared cultural responsibility for guarding one another’s physical and spiritual wellbeing
• Whanaungatanga in the Workplace: Discover how whanaungatanga (authentic belonging) builds deep team loyalty and naturally de-escalates workplace tensions before they start
• The Intersection of Law & Tikanga: Understand your legal obligations while integrating tikanga and Te Ao Māori principles

Our speakers bring a wealth of experience in both the corporate and Te Ao Māori worlds and are eager to answer any questions you might have.

Please note that this is general information and not intended to replace legal advice under any circumstances.
