Holidays Act complliance and remediation update - 21 August 2023 

Like many public and private organisations across New Zealand, Te Whatu Ora has been impacted by Holidays Act 2003 compliance issues. 

We’re committed to addressing these issues, to ensure current and former Te Whatu Ora staff receive their correct leave entitlements. 

We will keep you informed about progress and next steps. For current employees, you can read more on your local intranet.  

For former employees, the link to a new national portal will be available here from the week beginning 9 October 2023.  

You will be able to register with us through the portal, so we can keep you informed about any upcoming payments that may relate to you. We will also reach out directly to former employees using your last known contact details. 

Payments to former employees are expected to start later in 2023, with most payments occurring in 2024.
