The idea started with Samuel Parnell, a carpenter in Wellington, who in 1840 refused to work more than eight hours a day. Since skilled workers were in short supply, his employer had to agree.
As more skilled workers arrived, employers tried to change working conditions, but Parnell and others kept pushing for better rights. In 1890, Parnell led a Labour Day parade of 1,500 people to promote the eight-hour day. He passed away shortly after, and nine years later, Labour Day became an official public holiday.
Do you feel that we have reached the ideal in working environments yet? What rights are you passionate about relating to employment? Share your thoughts!

Ensure that streets, driveways, and front yards are well-lit. Motion-sensor lights around homes deter trespassers by reducing hiding spots and illuminating their movements.
2) Trim your trees
Overgrown shrubs and trees provide cover for intruders. Keeping them well-trimmed around windows and doors improves visibility and reduces potential hiding spots.
3) Secure Entry Points
Ensure doors, windows, and gates are always closed when you are away from the house. Upgrade to more secure locks, deadbolts, or even smart locks for added protection.
4) Add a security camera
Place security cameras in the main entry points to your home. Doorbell cameras are also relatively cheap and a great way to keep track of who is visiting your home when you aren't there.
5) Start a Neighborhood Watch Program
You could reach out to members on Neighbourly to form a group of neighbors who can regularly keep an eye out for suspicious activity and report it. You could also check with Neighbourhood Support to see what is existing in your area.
6) Introduce yourself to your neighbours
The closer you are to your neighbors, the more likely they’ll notice when something unusual or suspicious is happening around your property
Feel free to share anything that you do around your area to deter crime.

New Zealand Red Cross urgently needs volunteers to join the wonderful Red Cross Shop[s] in Nelson and Richmond.
There are more than 50 Red Cross shops nationwide, and they are a win-win for everyone. They let communities access affordable pre-loved goods, divert items from landfill, help volunteers gain work experience and training, and the funds from shop sales enable New Zealand Red Cross to continue doing vital humanitarian work.
Volunteer retail assistants help both their community and the environment as they help people find the right pre-loved item to take home. The role also involves restocking and merchandising the shop and helping unpack and sort donated goods. Training is provided, and you can even earn retail qualifications as you volunteer. If you have at least four hours of your time to contribute for a morning or afternoon shift each and a heart for making a difference, this is the volunteer role for you!
