Legal commentator Garth Gallaway looks at how difficult it can be to prove a charge of recklessness in workplace prosecutions after a recent case involving Waste Management.
He'll also look at the number of investigations taken by WorkSafe last year, which was significantly lower.
He'll also talk about a new initiative designed to help poor performing companies or businesses improve their workplace safety. Garth Gallaway is a partner at Chapman Tripp in Christchurch.
