An ambulance was called to treat an injured worker at the Ports of Auckland last week - just two days after a damning report revealed widespread safety concerns.
Ports' chief executive Tony Gibson said things would change but on Thursday a stevedore fell six feet through a rusted hatch on a ship.
Maritime Union Auckland spokesman Grant Williams said she landed on her tailbone and suffered a number of injuries.
"Her arm, her thumb, shin, ankles, not life threatening [but] serious enough to be off work, but she's doing all right, she's in good spirits right now," Williams said.
