Even where conduct appears serious enough to justify dismissal, employers still need to follow a fair and reasonable process.

That means investigating the allegations, providing the employee with the relevant information, allowing them a genuine opportunity to respond, and carefully considering their explanation before making any decision.

Sometimes the biggest risk isn't what the employee did. It's what the employer did (or didn't) do.

Thanks to everyone who joined us at our Manawatū Business Chamber BA5 last night.

As we found out with our interactive activity there's a lot of 'it depends' answers when it comes to HR and employment law. Us Kiwi's love the she'll be right attitude but it's a risky mindset when dealing with workplace relationships.

Reach out if you need some advice and certainty to avoid a costly mistake in your business.

Are your employment documents and practices up-to-date and legally compliant?

We can help ensure your organisation is protected by reviewing and updating employment agreements, job descriptions, workplace policies, and advise on legal compliance and risk.

A valid 90-day trial period can protect your business from unjustified dismissal claims, giving you greater certainty when ending employment. Get the process right and reduce the risk of costly dismissal disputes.

We're based in the Manawatū and are only a phone call away if you need support with your HR and Employment needs.

Instead, before confirming anything – give them some time to cool down, then grab the phone and call us. We’ll step you through the correct process to minimise your risks.

Did you know that the process of a restructure is just as important as the reason? It’s not just “best practice” — it’s a legal requirement.

Getting it wrong can expose your business to costly and unnecessary personal grievance claims.

We support businesses to navigate change, ensuring your process is legally sound and commercially practical, while treating people with fairness and respect.

Need some help? Give us a call. No cost, no obligation (and cheaper than a PG!).
