Online Tool for Holidays Entitlements - New Zealand
View the previous news item for New Zealand
The Department of Labour has introduced a new online tool to help employers work out holiday entitlements for public holidays, and for sickness and bereavement leave.
The online Tool for Holidays Entitlements provides guidance on:
- whether an employee is entitled to a paid public holiday, sick day or bereavement leave day (that is, whether the day would "otherwise be a working day" for an employee)
- what an employee should be paid (that is, their "relevant daily pay" for their day off or for working on a public holiday)
The tool covers entitlements in the Holidays Act 2003, not those in employment agreements, and has been developed in discussion with employer groups, unions and payroll providers. It will be of particular help for employers and employees with complex work arrangements. It does not cover independent contractors.
