Sick Leave
I have just used all my sick leave all 10 days in one fowl swoop. But it was not me that got sick but a family member who has just had a second stroke. While we are all talking about sick leave it all seems pointless when you have to use your sick leave on your family because there is no other way you can leave your job to care for your family in cases like this. So now if i get sick i will have to use my AL. To me there is no provision for this type of leave, without losing your sick leave. There is no such thing as Domestic Leave it would be really good if there was. Then you could keep your SL for yourself. Especially when for me i had just got my new 10 days sick leave as it was my anniversary in my job. All 20yrs worth in this job. By the way my bosses have been very helpful and accommodating. Not all employers are but i am sure that if they could they would help their employees out. Everyone should be entitled to SL all 10 days of it. Most people would work full time if they could. But lets be fair. It is possible to do five days worth of work in four days and then have the fifth day off! everyone wins. We just need to adopt this way of working. No more sick leave required.

Poll: Should the government levy industries that contribute to financial hardship?
As reported in the Post, there’s a $30 million funding gap in financial mentoring. This has led to services closing and mentors stepping in unpaid just to keep helping people in need 🪙💰🪙
One proposed solution? Small levies on industries that profit from financial hardship — like banks, casinos, and similar companies.
So we want to hear what you think:
Should the government ask these industries to contribute?
-
51.9% Yes, supporting people is important!
-
32.7% No, individuals should take responsibility
-
15.4% ... It is complicated
Outdated 'Recent Notices in New Zealand'
Can anyone here or from Neighbourly.co.nz please explain to me why we have the so called ''Recent Notices in New Zealand' a.k.a. death notices tab here on Neighbourly when if fact, the most recent death notice is from 2023?
I don't know if anyone has used this tab recently, if ever, I only used when looking for a friend's recent death notice.
If this isn't going to be updated or in fact be what they say it is, 'Recent Notices in New Zealand', then please replace it with something we can all access with up to date information, maybe bring back the groups option - just a thought.
Any ideas people?
