Employment Issues

Ronald from Massey

One of the main issues facing SME's today is the correct perfomance management of employees. Get it wrong and you could pay dearly. I just worked with a client who relied on using the 90 day clause to get rid of some one.

Get it wrong and you could pay dearly. I just worked with a client who relied on using the 90 day clause to get rid of some one. Unfortunately for him he hadn't given it the due diligence it needed, hadn't explained it fully, didn't take the advice offered. He was confident he was ok. The matter went to mediation, the worker who had only been employed 6 days before dismissal was awarded $6000 plus contribution to costs. A lesson learned but an expensive one that could have been avoided.

Bug Lab Auckland

Phil Goff from Phil Goff

Bug Lab Auckland is the brilliant new exhibition at Auckland Zoo, which I officially opened yesterday. Developed by Te Papa and Weta Workshop, it took six months and over 40,000 hours to design. I highly recommend checking it out this summer - it's great for kids, but adults will love it too. … View moreBug Lab Auckland is the brilliant new exhibition at Auckland Zoo, which I officially opened yesterday. Developed by Te Papa and Weta Workshop, it took six months and over 40,000 hours to design. I highly recommend checking it out this summer - it's great for kids, but adults will love it too. It's your last chance to see it in New Zealand for the foreseeable future as the exhibition is heading overseas in the New Year.

Check out the video below for a sneak peak, including a live wētāpunga - New Zealand's endangered Giant Weta.
