What makes our business unique? Building Safety with Mana: Unique Approaches to Construction Safety.
Our business distinguishes itself by integrating Māori cultural values into every aspect of our operations, fostering a workplace environment that respects and honours the principles of kaitiakitanga (guardianship) and manaakitanga (hospitality).
What sets us apart is our proactive approach to incorporating Te Ao Māori (the Māori world) perspectives into our health and safety practices, ensuring that our construction sites are not only safe but also culturally inclusive and respectful.
Our uniqueness lies in our commitment to partnering with local iwi (Māori tribes) and incorporating tikanga Māori (Māori customs) into our health and safety protocols, creating a harmonious blend of indigenous wisdom and modern safety standards.
We differentiate ourselves through our deep understanding of the interconnectedness between Māori culture and workplace safety, implementing innovative solutions that reflect both our respect for traditional knowledge and our dedication to protecting our workers.
At the heart of our business
Is a strong adherence to the principles of whanaungatanga (relationships) and mana whenua (connection to the land), which guide our approach to fostering a safe and culturally rich environment on our construction sites.
Our business thrives on embracing Te Tiriti o Waitangi (the Treaty of Waitangi) principles, recognising the importance of partnership, participation, and protection in ensuring the safety and well-being of both our workers and the wider community.
What makes us truly special is our unwavering commitment to te reo Māori (the Māori language) revitalisation efforts within our organisation, creating a culturally affirming workplace where everyone feels valued and empowered to contribute to safety initiatives.
We pride ourselves on being pioneers in integrating Mātauranga Māori (Māori knowledge) into construction safety practices, leading the way in promoting cultural competency and understanding among our workforce and stakeholders.
Our unique approach to safety in construction is rooted in the belief that by embracing Māori cultural values such as whakawhanaungatanga (building relationships) and wairuatanga (spirituality), we can create safer, more resilient work environments for all.
What truly sets us apart is our holistic approach to safety, which not only prioritises physical well-being but also acknowledges the importance of cultural well-being, ensuring that every worker feels respected, supported, and empowered to work safely in a culturally diverse environment.
