NZPFU members yet to complete the Whanaungatanga Survey need to get onto it pronto!
The survey was to close today but due to various demands on FENZ personnel it has been extended to 8 May 2026.
April 28th is Workers' Memorial Day where we remember and honour workers killed, injured, or suffering with illness as a result of their work or workplaces.
The Corrections Association of New Zealand (CANZ) has expressed strong support for NZPFU members in efforts to secure a settlement that “recognises the skill, commitment and sacrifice” our members make.
FENZ has started to issue new appointment letters that attempt to coerce our members to sign individual employment agreements.
The letters refer to the collective employment terms and conditions of employment on matters not covered by the letter, but the letter then
erodes the protections our members have under the collective employment agreement.
NZPFU members are into their 6th month of strikes with FENZ refusing to table an offer they said six weeks ago they were working up.

Our members serve their communities to protect and preserve life, property and the environment. NZPFU representatives are based on all career fire stations. There are also 19 Union Locals in the major metropolitan and principal centres where career firefighters are employed.
