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 final Survey will revisit some questions and we hope to present a picture of how things have changed.

What do you urgently need to know about incentive schemes right now?

As we begin to adjust to our new “normal” and get some of the immediate HR/H & S practicalities sorted, some of the questions now facing employers relate to incentives schemes.  For some, it was simply a question of whether to pay out incentive payments for the 2019/2020 financial year, while for others it’s a bigger question about whether their incentive scheme is still fit for purpose in the post Covid-19 era.
