Some of the more complex workplace issues such as discrimination, harassment, pay problems or unjustified dismissal are the focus for a new Employment Clinic at the Citizens Advice Bureau (CAB) in Ōrewa.
Branch manager Tanya Gouws says an increasing number of problems like this have been raised with CAB volunteer interviewers in recent times.
Initially, these matters should be discussed with a CAB volunteer interviewer, who may then refer the person onto the Employment Clinic.
The free clinic (by appointment only) is held on Thursday mornings. It is run by a person trained in employment dispute resolution. Appointments can be in person, by phone or Zoom.
Gouws says the kind of assistance that can be provided are things like preparing to take a personal grievance claim, preparing for a disciplinary meeting or mediation.
Hibiscus Coast CAB can be contacted by phoning 09 426 5338 or call into 40 Ōrewa Square, Ōrewa.
