Today on International Women’s Day, let’s take a moment to celebrate our women leaders, acknowledging the contribution they make to their organisations, our society and New Zealand. Let us also celebrate those organisations which have embraced change, who value diversity, treat all staff equitably, pay fairly and provide equality of opportunity.

In our experience, most Not for Profit (NFP) organisations would agree that they strive to develop remuneration systems that are:

• Fair and equitable
• Defensible
• Transparent (some more than others)
• Affordable

Achieving this in good times is a challenge and when the going gets tough, it becomes even harder. Let’s see what that means.

Kia Kaha New Zealand!

Another week and another lockdown for Auckland! This is certainly feeling very similar to this time last year; however, we are better equipped and able to respond quicker now to these disruptions.

During this pandemic we have developed a number of guidelines in how we will work within each Alert Level across the country. Throughout each Level we will remain open for business to support both essential and non-essential businesses with the different issues they are facing.

Our Strategic Pay Senior Consultant, Christine Whelan examines the debate around salary increases being based on CPI and why this may not be the best idea.

Let’s forget for a moment the fact that CPI doesn’t always move positively and consistently upwards – over the last 5 years it’s ranged between 0.5% and 2.5%, while the remuneration market movement has remained at a reasonably steady 2 – 3%. Remuneration market movements, since they inevitably reflect employers’ ability to pay, already take into account CPI, while not being driven solely by it.

We have the great pleasure of announcing the appointment of Cathy Hendry as the new Managing Director at Strategic Pay effective from today, 25 January 2021.
