BDO Biz Bite – Employment Leave Bill

The Southland Business Chamber hosted Janet Copeland, Managing Partner at Copeland McAllister, for a practical session on the proposed Employment Leave Bill and what the changes could mean for New Zealand employers. Janet talked through the key areas of the reforms, highlighting what businesses, HR teams and payroll professionals need to be aware of and the practical steps they can start considering now.

A big thank you to Janet for sharing her knowledge and expertise, and to everyone who joined us for the session,

Thanks to BDO helping us bring practical and relevant learning opportunities to the Southland business community.
