Vitruvius achieves Tōtika certification, New Zealand’s universal standard for health and safety pre-qualification.
This year marks the third year in a row that Vitruvius has successfully achieved Tōtika certification, New Zealand’s universal standard for health and safety pre-qualification. Developed by Construction Health and Safety New Zealand (CHASNZ), Tōtika provides a consistent, streamlined framework for assessing health and safety capability across the construction and infrastructure sectors.
Achieving Tōtika certification means our systems and practices have been independently verified to meet rigorous industry standards. It reflects our commitment to providing a safe working environment for our people, our partners, and the communities we work in. It also gives our clients confidence that we are proactively managing health and safety risks across every project.
We’re proud to join many of New Zealand’s largest and most respected supply-chain leaders who have achieved this benchmark. Being Tōtika certified not only strengthens the way we work but also reduces duplication in the pre-qualification process, making it easier for clients to engage us with trust and assurance.
Health and safety excellence has always been a cornerstone of our business, and this recognition reinforces our ongoing commitment to continuous improvement, quality delivery, and doing the right thing – for our people, our clients, and our communities.
