HAUMARU TĀNGATA Framework
Framework for Improving the Health and Wellbeing of Māori Employed within High-risk Industries
Haumaru Tāngata is a Māori-centered approach that responds to the overrepresentation of Māori within workplace injury and mortality statistics. It focuses on high-risk sectors and gives a focused space for Māori workers, Māori businesses and health and safety representatives to design a bespoke framework to reduce workplace injury and fatalities. This within the context of the fact that past approaches have not always provided a platform to reduce the rates of workplace injury and death - particularly for Māori.
The expectation is that Haumaru Tāngata will deliver a Māori centered model that is meaningful to organisations, businesses, and individuals. A model - that is effective, culturally responsive, and capable of reducing and preventing the workplace injuries and fatalities that Māori experience.
