NZPPA SPECIAL WEBINAR – OTHER TYPES OF LEAVE

Employees in New Zealand get access to a wide range of leave options some as a right by law and some by agreement.    For payroll it is important to understand the difference between the two and what is the criteria to get them and what is paid or not paid when taken along with any common issues for payroll with these leave types.

This half day webinar will cover the other types of leave provided outside of the Holidays Act that payroll may come across.  The webinar will provide numerous examples and a full reference guide will be provided for attendees.

Attendees will be able to ask questions throughout the webinar through the Q&A functionality of ZOOM and the webinar will be recorded so participants will be able to view the webinar after the session.
