Skin Cancer Prevention filtered by Workplace

Skin cancer prevention and early detection work at Te Hiringa Hauora/Health Promotion Agency aims to increase:

• individual knowledge, attitudes and behaviours to manage exposure to ultraviolet radiation that causes damage
• environmental and policy support to protect people from ultraviolet radiation that causes harm, including workplaces (eg councils), recreational and sporting organisations, and primary healthcare organisations
• the quality and effectiveness of skin cancer prevention and early detection messages.

To achieve these goals, we work opportunistically with media outlets (television, radio, print), councils, workplaces, sports/recreational organisations, community groups, and the skin cancer control sector to both support their work and help deliver consistent messages across New Zealand.
