Carpentry tutor nails The Block NZ's health and safety attitudeROSS GIBLIN/FAIRFAX NZA carpentry tutor has given TV show The Block NZ a hammering for what he calls a hypocritical approach to health and safety issues. Last year, 196,140 watched The Block NZ: Villa Wars premiere, according to TV website Throng. The Block NZ first aired in 2012. "We discussed various health and safety issues brought to our attention by viewers," a WorkSafe spokesperson said. The show's producers, Warner Bros NZ, said all teams, tradies and crew were briefed on health and safety issues, and nobody had been seriously injured in any of the show's five seasons.
