It's Mental Health Awareness Week! The perfect reminder that creating safer workplaces goes beyond hard hats, high-vis, and PPE. It's about wellbeing too.

The theme for MHAW this year is Belonging Matters. And how do we create belonging? Through small, everyday actions that help people feel welcome, valued, and connected.

So this week, take a moment to connect with your family, friends, colleagues and wider community – whatever connection looks like to you!

One thing we're passionate about is getting out and seeing our people kanohi ki te kanohi.

Every month, we're committed to connecting face-to-face with our kaimahi through our Kōrero Haumaru (Safety Talks). These conversations are more than just a safety check-in. They're an opportunity to listen, learn, share ideas, and strengthen our commitment to keeping each other safe.

Safety is about people, whānau, and looking out for one another.

He tangata, he tangata, he tangata.
It's all about the people ;)

🌿 Te Wiki o te Reo Māori | Celebrating the language of Aotearoa 🌿

This week we're celebrating Te Wiki o te Reo Māori by learning and using more te reo Māori in our everyday conversations.

As the team behind AWF Auckland – Manufacturing & Logistics, we thought we'd start with the name of the community we proudly work in: Manukau.

🗣️ How to say Manukau

Ma-nu-kau (Pronounced: Mah-noo-koh)

Each vowel is sounded clearly:
✅ Ma = "Mah"
✅ nu = "noo"
✅ kau = "koh"

Learning to pronounce Māori place names correctly is a simple but meaningful way to show respect for te reo Māori and the history of the places we live and work.

📍 Visit the AWF Auckland – Manufacturing & Logistics branch: https://www.awf.co.nz/branches/auckland-manufacturing

This Te Wiki o te Reo Māori, challenge yourself to learn a new Māori word, greeting, or place name and use it with confidence.

Kia kaha te reo Māori! 💙

This week's greeting:

🌺 Kia Orana – more than just "hello", it's a heartfelt wish for someone to have a long, healthy, and fulfilling life.

Welcome to Cook Islands Māori Language Week ✨

Join the ‘Epetoma o te reo Māori Kūki 'Airani celebrations, from Sunday 2 August until Saturday 8 August. There are event listings, downloadable resources, language guides, posters and more on our website: https://bit.ly/45cusxG 🌺

Next time you're in branch, take a look around and see if you can spot your favourite Matariki star among our displays.
