Govt plans to prevent top earners making unjustified dismissal claims
The Government plans to prevent New Zealand’s highest earners from being able to make unjustified dismissal claims.
The policy was part of the ACT-National coalition agreement and it will now be introduced to Parliament next year.
A threshold of $180,000 per year would be set. Anyone earning above that would be unable to raise an unjustified dismissal claim if the planned law change comes into effect.
Knees up mother brown!
If the PSA can’t see that Brooke is bringing this in to minimise unjustified dismissals from the wholesale redundancies ACT and National are planning in the public service, they probably shouldn’t be a Union.
This is being brought in to amputate middle management and deal more of a prune to the higher echelons of the Wellington Bureaucracy.
The justifications for bringing this in are just junk. It’s a trap for the Public Service.

Increasingly having independent opinion in a mainstream media environment which mostly echo one another has become more important than ever, so if you value having an independent voice – please donate here.



The PSA need to drop their pathetic political neutrality/Partnership stance and be a union–this right wing chainsaw Govt. IS out to get you!
Public servants are in a perfect position to put a spanner in the works for CoC. After all partisan tory public sector workers have long leaked to the media and undermined ministers.
The squeezed middle is about to get what it voted for and will become the crushed middle and will soon join the rising number of bottom feeders .
Thanks for that you selfish pricks who thought you were rich because you have a million dollar mortgage .
