Health & Safety Recommendations

Written By Kim Manunui

Many of you will have hopefully read the Health and Safety worksheet if not use the button below to access it.

Health & Safety

Please have a read of this important document and ensure you follow the recommendations when undertaking your trap-line work.

One of the key aspects of this is attention to good hygiene practices, especially wearing gloves when handling dead carcasses and ensuring you wash your hands before handling food after you finish your trap run. Dead pests have a high chance of carrying diseases such as leptospirosis and giardia and certainly could also lead to bacterial wound infection if you have any cuts or abrasions on your hands.

Please also wear your hi-viz vests when out on the line and if biking, ensure your bike is parked off the track when you stop to check a trap.

Once you have read the health and safety recommendations could you please drop a quick note (if you have not done so already) to hukatrapping@biketaupo.org.nz to let us know and we can mark this off in our system.

Hi, I’m Kim and I work with a great team to help individuals, as well as small and not so small businesses get their message, product and services to the world using digital media and creating wonderful websites that don’t cost the earth.

I was born in Canada, and grew up around Vancouver and the mountains of British Columbia. My love of pristine environments led me to New Zealand and eventually to the mountains, lakes and rivers of the central North Island which is home. My family’s heritage is here, and it’s from here that Korio traverses the planet.

The digital world is never static and neither are we.

And I say ‘we’ because I work with an awesome group of talented people who I gather together as required to complete a project.  Whatever your business, not-for-profit or individual needs are we gather the best team to get the job done.

Collaboratively we are creative, share sustainable values and work hard for great outcomes because that’s the buzz of satisfaction that drives us.

If you have an audience and market to reach, we can make that happen. Creative design, words that work and smart behind the scenes stuff that cuts through the online noise. We’ll design your website and then build it. We’ll manage the content as well as all your hosting needs. We can handle your online advertising so you get noticed,
and we’ll manage your social media presence so you get the clicks, likes and engagement to grow your business. All within the budget you set, because none of this needs to cost the earth.  And the job doesn’t stop when your website goes live. We are your virtual business partner.
