HR Policy & Practice ReportsHot Topic Report: Leave Provisions in New Zealand Report 2007This report provides an overview of the measures organisations are implementing as a result of the revised legislation to leave provisions in New Zealand. With an analysis of annual leave, as well as sick leave and parental leave, this report is a broad guide to the latest market trends. The New Zealand labour market continues to be tight and voluntary attrition rates remain high. As a result organisations are placing more emphasis on attracting and retaining key employees. A key consideration for some organisations is whether to maintain an above-market position and offer annual leave provisions in excess of the new 4 weeks minimum entitlement. This report provides the market intelligence you need to make informed decisions. Results in this report are based on leave policy and practice data collected from more than 40 New Zealand organisations within different industry sectors including government; banking, finance and insurance; primary energy; telecommunications; IT; and media. Please note: this report is intended to provide a broad overview of market trends and does not contain a full and detailed analysis of leave policies and practice.
