This week: Instead of choosing one subject this week, we’ve chosen them all! In the name of answering YOUR questions, we’re covering, rehashing, discussing, and bantering on topics ranging from discrimination to transport obligations. Get amongst it!

This week: Is the NZ minimum youth rate a legal form of wage theft? That is what the team is discussing on the latest #ToolboxPodcast, feeding into last week’s yarn around wage theft, and the ongoing issue of pay equity.

This week: We’re talking wage theft. It is exactly what it sounds like and we’re giving you the tools you need to recognise it when it’s happening, and everything you need to know in dealing with it when and if it arises.

This week: All things discrimination! We’re supporting a young mum-to-be and want to share with all young workers, what to do if you think you’re facing being discriminated against. We also have a yarn about lawful discrimination, and when it is and isn’t okay. Get amongst it!

This week: Tony and Mel dive into the mess of trickery that is triangular employment relationships... Basically, they talk a whole lot about recruitment agencies, the need to knows, and the things to watch out for if you’re embarking on that employment journey.

This week: Something that even we find tricky to get our heads around is unpaid work trials. Are they legal, are they a real thing, and what can you do if you feel like your pre-employment trial resembles something more like working a shift? Tony and Mel discuss some of the ins and outs, along with what can and can’t be done in the pre-employment stages.

This week: Tony is joined by Robert Reid of FIRST Union, and two new friends working as International Union Aid interns. They talk migrant working conditions, and the exploitation that is rife among migrant workers and their employees.

This week: The team dive back into a bit of discussion around break entitlements. They’ve been compulsory, then they were made optional, and now they’re compulsory again... We’re clearing the fog and providing you with what you need to know!

This week: We’re talking incapacity to work due to an illness or injury, and what to do if you think your employer hasn’t followed due course in following through in your termination from work, or disciplinary action.
