Join us to hear about how directors may fall short of these obligations, and steps to take to mitigate your risk in case things do go wrong.
Many people have a general understanding of a PCBU’s health and safety obligations under the Health and Safety at Work Act 2015, but less well-known are directors’ obligations and the extent to which directors may be held personally liable for health and safety failings. Recent litigation in relation to the Whakaari/White Island eruption provides a timely reminder of these directors’ duties and a useful backdrop to dive into what is required of directors to meet their statutory obligations.
James advises corporate and private clients on general civil litigation and estate disputes, as well as construction and employment matters.
James enjoys the challenge of solving problems, taking complex issues and making them simple, and achieving the best possible outcome for the client against a commercial backdrop. More recently, James has helped corporate clients understand the risk and challenges faced in the current economic climate, and the flow on effect of what that could mean for directors.
