WorkSafe NZ has filed charges against 13 parties after an investigation into the Whakaari/White Island disaster.

Forty-seven people were on the active volcano off the coast of Whakatāne when it erupted on December 9, 2019. Of those, 22 died and 25 others survived but suffered severe injuries.

WorkSafe launched its investigation into the Whakaari/White Island disaster on December 11 - two days after the tragedy - and has now come to a decision.

Ten companies are facing a maximum fine of $1.5 million and another three individuals will also face charges for failing to exercise due diligence under the Health and Safety at Work Act.

Matt Jones will shed light on what businesses can learn from the court hearings and provide a fresh perspective on how we can all plan to ensure we reduce our risk exposures in 2021 and beyond.

Attendees will gain practical advice that can be actioned immediately. Matt specialises in breaking down terminology and ensuring his audiences are left with the tools and solutions to your requirements.
