A manager’s role is becoming increasingly complex. Not only are managers required to manage functions, deliver results and lead people, but they must also comply with New Zealand’s workplace laws and employer obligations.
In New Zealand, employers have responsibilities to prevent and respond to workplace discrimination, harassment, sexual harassment and bullying under legislation including the Health and Safety at Work Act 2015, the Employment Relations Act 2000 and the Human Rights Act 1993. Harassment and bullying are workplace risks that organisations must actively manage, and employers are expected to have clear policies, reporting processes, training and appropriate responses in place.
Recent changes also extended the timeframe for raising a personal grievance for sexual harassment, reinforcing the importance of proactive prevention, manager awareness and effective workplace systems.
Would your business be able to demonstrate that it is meeting its obligations?
This half-day workshop will provide managers with an understanding of current New Zealand workplace laws relating to discrimination, harassment, sexual harassment and bullying, along with the specific responsibilities of every manager.
