Health & Safety Manual and Induction Form
Health & Safety
As you will be aware the Health & Safety landscape has changed for NZ workplaces. The Covi SuperShow and the Auckland Showgrounds are no different and in general, there has been a significant increase in expectations. Please familiarise yourself with the following information so there are no surprises come show time:
- Please keep the aisles clear at all times – the walkways will be very busy. Any rubbish may be left at the front of your stand (but within your stand boundary) and we will collect this regularly.
- NO smoking is allowed in the halls.
- LPG must be turned off (unless you have had prior approval – if so, please ensure you have a fire extinguisher readily available and visible nearby).
- ALL staff must be wearing closed-toed shoes on build-up and break-down – no exceptions.
- Children under 16 are not permitted on-site during the build-up or break-down – no exceptions.
- Hi-Vis Safety vests must be worn at all times – no exceptions.
- All electrical equipment must be tested and tagged.
- Security will be patrolling the area 24 hours a day for the duration of the show and the Pack-In.
- All vehicles entering halls must use hazard lights and limit their speed to a walking pace.
- All unloading and stand building are to be completed by Thursday 7pm.

Please ensure all your team are in Hi-Vis for all of Pack In and Pack Out. You will not be allowed in the Halls or the Outside Area without it. There will be no exceptions to this.
