Notes de l'éditeur
- Talofa lava. My name is Natia Tucker. I’m an injury prevention advisor at Auckland Council and a member of the Puataunofo steering group. The puataunofo is a flower that grows in the Pacific. Its name is made up of three words. Pua is a flower. Tau is to gather or harvest. Nofo is to sit. The puataunofo grows close to the ground, so when the dusky maidens prepare their floral garlands, they sit down and work together. That is the essence of puataunofo – we sit together to work to a common goal in a humble manner.
- Pacific workers are our target population. But we know that to have any impact on that population, we must have impact at many other levels, too. Puatuanofo works at all levels of the spectrum of prevention from the individual, to community, to providers, to organisations, right up to policy and legislation. At the bright yellow heart of this diagram from Safekids Aotearoa, are coalitions and networks. That’s Puataunofo – the dusky maidens and men working together to achieve a common goal.
- At the individual level, Puataunofo strengthens knowledge and skills by providing learning opportunities and building trusting relationships. We remove cultural barriers between presenters and participants. We open in prayer. We use pacific languages. We play pacific music. We dress island-style. Our presenters are Pacific professionals. They command respect at both a professional and cultural level.
- At the community level, Puataunofo uses what we have in common. We acknowledge our island heritage, our connections and our journeys to New Zealand. We tell personal stories. At times they are deeply personal. Other times, they can be hilarious. This picture is taken at a financial literacy workshop at Sleepyhead in Otahuhu. Though honesty, humour and humility, we can touch on tricky subjects.
- We show respect to our participants through Pacific hospitality. We always provide food
- And we always provide a gift. Every participant takes home a goody bag. It contains information from our various organisations as well as goodies like Weetbix and UpnGo from Sanitarium Health and Wellbeing. We target Pacific workers but all our initiatives are inclusive. Even though we sell it as Pacific, it’s a generic message that’s accepted by all cultures.
- At the provider level, Puataunofo educates Pacific H&S representatives through working with EPMU and ACC’s Tanoa project. Here’s Ed Fili of Chep Pallets in Manukau. He was the winner of the Most Influential Employee in Health and Safety. And June Papali’i of Heller Tasty, a health and safety champion who has become a member of Puataunofo.
- At the organisational level, puataunofo has Got management at several worksites to shut down operations in order for all staff and management to attend our workshops. Pictured is Fulton Hogan earlier this year. Sanitarium has introduced exercise programmes for all staff and their families. Other companies now include our DVD in their induction packages and have introduced regular team meetings Another company appointed a health and safety manager as a result of our workshops.
- At the policy and legislation level, we have some friends in central and local government. His Worship Len Brown was instrumental in setting up Puataunofo. He’s pictured her with the late Papaliitele Tanumafili Toso – a pioneer for Puataunofo. Honorable Kate Wilkinson is pictured here at the sign of the Manufacturing Sector Action Plan last year. That plan states “much of the future work addressing injury among Pacific workers could be accommodated within the framework of an expanded Puataunofo project.” We look forward to that future.
