Subject: Official Information request - Process of Investigaton for c19 notifications to Worksafe

[You don't often get email from [FOI #24060 email]. Learn why this is important at https://aka.ms/LearnAboutSenderIdentific... ]

Dear Worksafe
I refer you to my previous OIA on the number of notifications which WorkSafe received under Section 199 of the Health and Safety at Work Act 2015 for covid-19 in https://fyi.org.nz/request/23394-how-man...

You replied that WorkSafe New Zealand had received 23 notifications of COVID-19 since December 2019 to 5 July 2023.

I see that 22 of these say "Acknowledged, no further action taken" and 1 says "Referred to Assessment Team". The dates for these notifications started 16Apr2020 and the last one was 19Dec2022.

What was the process to investigate these 23 notifications under S199 of the Health and Safety at Work Act 2015?

Yours faithfully,

Erika Whittome
