Māori work-related fatal injury in Aotearoa-New Zealand, 2005–2014: a decade of continued inequities for Indigenous Māori

WRFI continues to be a significant and systemic source of inequity for Indigenous Māori in NZ. Consistent with previous decades, Māori workers experience disproportionately higher rates of WRFI in NZ, largely explained by the higher representation of Māori workers in high-risk occupations and industries. Future efforts to address inequities in WRFI for Māori workers should focus on high-risk industries and occupations, as well as address the inequitable distribution of WRFI risks.

Abstract

WRFI continues to be a significant and systemic source of inequity for Indigenous Māori in NZ. Consistent with previous decades, Māori workers experience disproportionately higher rates of WRFI in NZ, largely explained by the higher representation of Māori workers in high-risk occupations and industries. Future efforts to address inequities in WRFI for Māori workers should focus on high-risk industries and occupations, as well as address the inequitable distribution of WRFI risks.
