    How Work Safe failed us during a global pandemic

    We are joined today by John Crocker and Hannah to take about Health and Safety in New Zealand. This is part 1 for Health and Safety. Today we talked about the importance of Health and Safety, what should a worker do in a difficult situation and WorkSafe.  Debunked the idea that Heath and Safety was designed to stop business but really is there to help workers and company to create a safe environment.  For every worker in New Zealand, who feels their work place is not safe, please contact your Health and Safety Rep, Union rep/organiser.  If you want to learn more about Health and Safety, please refer to the legislation Health and Safety Act 2015. We will be posting more videos on Health and Safety, hopefully, it can help you with any issues you may have at work regarding Health and Safety.  If you feel you are at risk at work, every work has the right to stop work. Please follow us on Facebook, we often post up important information regarding health and safety. https://www.facebook.com/UniteUnion/ You can also go on our website.  www.Unite.org.nz. or call us on 0800 2 Unite.  I you would like to be a member of Unite, please click on the link below and become a member of Unite Union New Zealand.  https://database.unite.org.nz/signup?returnUrl=http:%2F%2Funite.org.nz&referrer=

    Comparing UK and NZ union

    Guest, Shen, a trade unionist from the UK. Being an organiser from the UK and worked at Unite for the last 9 months, Shen had really sent the good and the bad of both sides of the world.  Shen came from a union and a country that is struggling with many things New Zealand fast food workers takes for granted.  Unlike NZ, in the UK Unions had little to no rights when it comes to accessing their members, they often get blocked from a company for even entering the sites.  MacDonald Uk is also facing issues like Youth rate, Zero Hours, these are things we in New Zealand had stopped.

    Hours of work

    Hours of work,  Zero hours and casual contract.   New Zealand has currently entered into a sate where tens of thousands of workers are losing their jobs over the next few weeks. It is truly a scary time for many workers across the country. The future of work may not look the same in the post COVID world. Workers need to be careful of any jobs they may accept in the new future. Also, many workers had their hours slashed in this post COVID society, what to do if there is work available.  For more information pleas visit our website, unite.org.nz https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCJnOQ_Nkomd6xhaPQ_LaL5A
