Answer

I am advised that WorkSafe New Zealand does not run a graduate programme but it does employ graduates as part of standard recruitment. However, it does not specifically record when a new employee hired through standard recruitment is a graduate. Therefore, I am unable to confirm how many graduates WorkSafe employed between November 2022 and November 2023.
