The Corporate group enables WorkSafe to operate as an effective, accountable and high-performing regulator. It provides the organisation-wide capabilities that support strategic decision-making, organisational performance, governance, communications, accountability and stakeholder confidence. Working closely with the Executive Leadership Team, Board and external stakeholders, the group helps ensure WorkSafe can clearly demonstrate the impact it is having and maintain confidence in its role as New Zealand’s primary health and safety regulator.

The Regulatory Effectiveness group sits at the heart of how WorkSafe operates as a modern regulator. Bringing together strategic interventions, policy, products and regulatory stewardship, the function is responsible for identifying where harm is occurring, determining where regulatory effort can have the greatest impact, designing interventions that influence behaviour and evaluating whether those interventions deliver meaningful change. It provides the evidence, insight, intervention logic and regulatory products that help shape organisational priorities and ensure WorkSafe’s efforts are focused where they can make the biggest difference.
