Thank you Clendon Whanau

Nicole Stanton from

We think these 120 wonderful volunteers deserve a little special recognition for the beautification they did last weekend!

3 hours of their Saturday morning was donated back to the community - this adds up to a total of 360 free community service hours!

Together we swept & picked up litter, washed windows, painted benches, trimmed hedges, planted a tree & many plants in bare spots and collected 6 x 240L (=1440L) wheelie bins full of loose litter and approximately 600kg of waste in black bags, which was very efficiently disposed of by the Civic contractors & Citycare Property team.

We would like to acknowledge each and every one of the wonderful volunteers who participated as well as the many volunteers groups. We had representatives from Clendon Business Association Ambassador Team, Citycare Property & Civic Contractors Team, The Pride Project Team, Manurewa Bluelight BBQ & Bluelight JAM Crew Chefs, Kainga Ora Team, Downer Team, Raise-up Youth Crew, What Hope Team, 180 Youth Project – Crossroad Ministries Team, Student Volunteer Army, AIGA Energy Team and the Manurewa Youth Council Team. It was just amazing to be part of such generous collaboration!

We are still buzzing - thank you Clendon!

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!
