Auckland Regional Total Mobility Scheme

Driving Miss Daisy Henderson

A reminder to our Total Mobility Scheme clients. Don't forget about the Free Trips which are available up until 30 June 2020 !!!

Auckland Transport will pay the transport cost (up to $80.00 maximum each way) for all trips using your Total Mobility Scheme card. If your trip is over $80.00 you will have to pay the balance. In many cases our clients trips are under $80.00 per trip so they are getting free transport :) This is a great opportunity to get out and about in Level 2 and to reconnect with your community again. Normal fares will resume from 1 July 2020.

There will be a charge for services such as Companion or Waiting as these services are not covered by the Total Mobility Scheme.

We have eftpos available with the option of contactless payment.

For more information please call Denise Ph 09 8365713 or Mob 021503644

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.

Do you feel that we have reached the ideal in working environments yet? What rights are you passionate about relating to employment? Share your thoughts!
