NZ Voice Test — Kim

Workplace safety laws can seem complex and full of jargon.

🤔

The official documents are full of jargon. It's hard to know what terms like 'PCBU' mean for your specific role.

😟

You worry about missing something important. You want to do the right thing but are not sure what is required.

📚

Trying to find clear, simple answers can be overwhelming. You just need to know the fundamentals that apply to you.

A different approach

Learn it your way, at your own pace

Every lesson comes in five formats: text, audio, video, slides, and an AI tutor. If you get stuck or have a question, you can just ask the tutor. It gives you a straight answer without making you search through documents.

Your AI tutor, on every lesson

You
I've heard the term PCBU but I'm not sure if it applies to me as a sole trader. What does it actually mean?
AI Tutor
That's a great question. PCBU stands for 'Person Conducting a Business or Undertaking'. The term is very broad and covers most business structures in New Zealand, including sole traders. The key idea is that if you're operating a business, you have a primary duty of care for health and safety, even if you don't have any employees. Would you like me to explain the specific duties of a PCBU under the Act?
