If stakeholder relationships can be hard to manage, they've got nothing on coalition relationships. My first foray into coalition territory was the Employment Relations Amendment Bill. Labour and New Zealand First agree that the lowest-paid and most vulnerable workers need to get greater protection, but we clearly have distinct views on how to achieve that. Even so, we have restored workers' rights to rest and meal breaks. Vulnerable workforces are better protected by Part 6A of the Act. Workers are now in a stronger bargaining position when negotiating employment agreements, and the fire-at-will, 90-day trials now only apply to 29 percent of workers.
