Employment Relations compliance advice that helps you get it right
New Zealand employment law has strict rules on process, and small mistakes can turn into costly personal grievances. Our specialists explain your obligations in plain language and help you take the right next step.
Employment Relations compliance advice line
Speak with an employment specialist about any issue with your staff, from a quick employment law question about leave to a complex dismissal. Get practical guidance on what the law requires and what to do next.
Disciplinaries and dismissals
Dismissing an employee without a fair process is one of the most common reasons employers face personal grievances. We guide you through each step, from investigating concerns to the final decision.
Personal grievances and disputes
If an employee raises a personal grievance, we’ll guide you on how to respond in good faith. If it escalates, our claims team can represent you at mediation and, if you are covered by Peninsula Protect, at the Employment Relations Authority (ERA), with specialist employment lawyers brought in where needed.
Compliance and minimum entitlements
Get clear guidance and answers on the Holidays Act, minimum wage, leave, trial periods and employment agreements, so you meet your obligations and avoid backpay claims.
