Ian Alsweiler
Health & Safety Manager

Naylor Love has a strong health and safety culture. As far back as 1975, Naylor Love was placed first and second in the Department of Labour endorsed national Wormald Stero Safety Awards for our John Wickliffe House and University of Otago Science III Projects, respectively.

Over the past 15 years, Naylor Love has responded to the rapidly changing health and safety environment, and has met the challenges of the current health and safety legislation with a comprehensive working Health and Safety programme. We have had an active accident and injury prevention programme in place since 1993, and in 1995 Naylor Love was the first commercial construction company in New Zealand to self-manage injury and rehabilitation under the ACC-accredited employer programme.

The objective of our programme is to ensure that everyone who enters a Naylor Love site feels safe, is not subject to the unexpected and leaves without injury or harm.

We currently work under the ACC WSMP Programme with tertiary accreditation. We are the only construction company operating at this level. In addition to our own accident and injury prevention programme, we have adopted the Sitesafe (NZ) Passport Scheme. All personnel on our sites, except escorted guests, are required to hold passports. In addition, all of our foreman hold Site Safe Gold Cards.
