Be Safe Taranaki has been working on a project called BeAligned to standardise safety requirements across major manufacturing sites in Taranaki.
The desired outcome is to improve safety by having consistent rules and requirements for contractors. A steering group and working group was established in 2016 to drive the project, comprised of a representative from each manufacturing site and across contract companies.
