Safety Protocols

Our priority is to make sure everyone who comes to Napier Port goes home safely every day.

We believe safety is a shared responsibility. It’s about understanding the risks, and acting to protect the health, safety and wellbeing of ourselves and those around us.

Our Safety Protocols are the safety standards that apply to everyone who comes to Napier Port. They cover our container terminal, wharves, log yards, roadways, rail corridors and buildings. Basically, once you’re in the gate, you need to follow these rules.

They are set out in two booklets – our Individual Safety Protocols and our Company Safety Protocols. Both booklets are updated periodically, please find the latest editions below. If you have any questions, please contact our Health and Safety team: healthandsafety@napierport.co.nz
