Report of the Safe Staffing/ Healthy Workplaces Committee of Inquiry
The Safe Staffing Health Workplaces Committee of Inquiry released its completed report and recommendations on Friday 9 June. The Committee was set up as part of the NZNO / DHB MECA settlement last year in response to NZNO concerns about nursing workloads.
DHB CEOs and NZNO members employed in DHBs will have an opportunity to endorse the reports recommendations at membership meetings being held during late June and early July. See meeting schedule here.
Following this process, the report will be launched formally.
