At NZ Safety Blackwoods, the team understands that workplace safety is about more than just having the right gear. True safety comes from knowing how to use that gear correctly and confidently in real-world situations. That’s where the Worksafe Training team steps in — helping organisations across New Zealand build knowledge, skills and confidence so their people can work safely every day.

With a holistic Assess – Train – Equip approach, Worksafe Training provides more than a checklist; it delivers practical, tailored safety education that makes a measurable difference in the workplace.

• ASSESS: Every training journey begins with a thorough understanding of the workplace, the team, and the risks involved. The Worksafe Training team engages with the right stakeholders, asks the right questions and pinpoints exactly what training and equipment is required to improve safety performance.
  
• TRAIN: Training is delivered by professional educators who bring together years of teaching expertise and hands-on industry experience. This ensures sessions are practical, relevant and engaging, whether they’re delivered to a small team or a large workforce.
  
• EQUIP: Once staff have been trained, NZ Safety Blackwoods can supply the right safety gear for the job — ensuring it’s fit for purpose and that the people using it know exactly how to handle it.

Courses to Match Business Needs

Worksafe Training offers a comprehensive suite of safety courses to meet the needs of different industries and regulatory requirements. Training covers critical topics such as confined space entry, height safety, hazardous substances handling, permit to work, lock out tag out, atmospheric gas testing, emergency response and occupational health and safety.
Courses are available in two flexible formats:

• Public courses delivered at multiple locations nationwide — from Auckland to Southland — making it easy for individuals and small teams to attend.
• Customised on-site training developed around a business’s specific operations, industry and safety risks. Training can be based on NZQA-accredited unit standards or developed as bespoke programmes to suit a company’s unique requirements.

Over the years, Worksafe Training has partnered with industries including food manufacturing, general manufacturing, transportation, building services, entertainment, amusement parks, film and television, construction, warehousing and shipbuilding. In every sector, the focus is on delivering training that is relevant, memorable and immediately useful in the workplace.

Training That Sticks

The Worksafe Training team’s approach is built on practical, scenario-based learning. Trainers don’t just talk about safety; they create realistic situations where participants can practise their skills using the tools of the trade. This hands-on method ensures that learning transfers directly to the workplace.
Courses are also designed to support learners of all backgrounds, with tailored programmes available for those with literacy or other learning challenges. The aim is to ensure every participant gains the full benefit of their training experience.
