Vandalism on Ellerslie Panmure Highway

Red from Mount Wellington

It is really frustrating to know that some people around have nothing better to do but destruction on the neighbourhood.

On Wednesday morning, We found our Scrap Bin’s lid dis attached and broken for no reason. We suspect a stupid and crazy person did it the night of Tuesday.

I have reported this incident to Auckland Council as we do not have a spare bin to use and a replacement should arrive soon.

I wish the culprit could sleep tight on his attitude.

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!

Bad treatment

Carolyn from Greenlane

I go around with the feeling I have a bullseye on my back. This year I have been physically attacked by 3 people. None of which I was facing . Photographs taken by management. Verbally abused on many occasions. When I go into the common room I take my phone. Have rung the police. Phone always taken off me by management.i want to be safe.
