TIA submission on the Fair Pay Agreements Bill
20 May 2022
The Fair Pay Agreement Bill represents a major shift in the way labour relations are undertaken in Aotearoa New Zealand.

This concern is not around the intent of the Bill – we very much support better wages, conditions and productivity across the tourism workforce. Rather, we are very concerned that the Bill would establish a complicated labour relations framework that will serve as a major impediment to the operation of the tourism industry to the detriment to both business operators and their employees.
