Ms Van Den Berg has an extensive background in safety and wellbeing. She has held a number of safety roles at Air New Zealand and the Department of Corrections, where she led their Safety Business Partnering function.

The recent Covid-19 pandemic saw Ms Van Den Berg lead the Safety & Wellbeing response at the Department of Corrections, where strong collaboration and agile thinking were key to ensuring the Department could operate safely and people were supported.

During her time at Air New Zealand, Ms Van Den Berg led the company’s Health and Safety Worker Participation and Engagement strategy project.

It was awarded WorkSafe New Zealand/ACC best overall contribution to improving workplace health and safety in New Zealand at the Safeguard Awards in 2019.

As Frucor Suntory’s new Head of Safety & Wellbeing, Ms Van Den Berg’s mission is to fuel people’s passion for Health & Safety and Wellbeing, enabling better work through a healthier, safer work environment.

“I want safety to be part of our DNA – a core value we embrace, where safety is inherent in all our systems and processes, people instinctively operate safely and challenge others to do the same. A workplace where our people can truly thrive,” she said.

“Ultimately, safety is about people. It’s about embracing the things that go right and collaborating to find solutions so we can all go home to our families and friends safe and well, healthy in mind and body, each and every day.”
