The Fair Pay Agreements system is now up and running. This system brings together unions and employer associations to bargain for minimum employment terms for all covered employees in an industry or occupation. Further information about Fair Pay Agreements and what it might mean for you is now available on the Employment New Zealand website. This includes more detailed guidance for employees, employers, and bargaining sides.
You’ll also be able to check the status of a proposed Fair Pay Agreement, and see who the employer and employee bargaining parties are, via the Fair Pay Agreement dashboard on the MBIE website.
