Have Your Say on New Zealand’s Employment Dispute Resolution System

The Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment (MBIE) is seeking feedback from businesses on their experiences with New Zealand’s employment dispute resolution system, including what works well and where improvements could be made.

To help gather business perspectives, MBIE is hosting an online consultation session on:

Tuesday 28 July
10.30am – 12.00pm

This is an opportunity to share your experiences directly with MBIE and help inform future policy.

To register your interest, register below before 12.00pm on Thursday 23 July. We will coordinate registrations and provide you with a meeting link.

If you are unable to attend, or would also like your views reflected in a collective Whanganui business submission, please let us know. We are preparing a local submission and welcome input from businesses across the district before the consultation closes on Friday 31 July. Email: ceo@businesswhanganui.nz
