any cash jobs in the area of cafe work, caregiving and cleaning?

Manasi from Beach Haven

Hi all
I am looking this on behalf of a lady I met at Takapuna who is in a very difficult situation financially. WINZ is giving her very little weekly support. She needs some more finances to pay for her expenses and her borther's last rites who died unexpectedly.
She is a Chef by trade and has also done care giving work and is also open for cleaning work.
Since past 6 weeks or more, she stands every week on sunday in takapuna, does some singing and relies on kind people who donate her some money, food etc.
If anyone knows of any such work opportunities, please PM me. Ideally in takapuna or close by areas, as she lives there and relies on bus as transport.
Many thanks 🙏

What workplace change would you like to see most?

The Team from Neighbourly.co.nz

This coming Monday is Labour Day in New Zealand. This public holiday marks when the eight-hour workday and 48-hour workweek became law in 1899. The idea started with Samuel Parnell, a carpenter in Wellington, who in 1840 refused to work more than eight hours a day. Since skilled workers were in short supply, his employer had to agree.

As more skilled workers arrived, employers tried to change working conditions, but Parnell and others kept pushing for better rights. In 1890, Parnell led a Labour Day parade of 1,500 people to promote the eight-hour day. He passed away shortly after, and nine years later, Labour Day became an official public holiday.
