Northern Branch Notice to Members

Posted 1 Sep '09 under Northern Branch

During the current industrial action, to enable members to receive Union notices in a timely manner, it is strongly recommended that members sign up to both text alerting and their home e-mail address so that notices can be sent directly to them.

This can be done through the NZPFU website www.nzpfu.org.nz and this will be arranged as soon as possible.

If you have any queries, do not hesitate to contact your Local Branch Representatives, Northern Branch Representatives or National Committee Members.

Return to Work Duties

We have been told that staff wanting to do Return to Work Duties will have to do them at District HQ and they do not intend to reimburse your travel costs, “you are getting an enhanced pay and you can fund your own travel”. We have since got an agreement that the travel distance reimbursement will be paid for travel to District HQ.
