NZPFU cancels today's strike

Friday’s strike cancelled, Saturday's Election Day strike to proceed as planned

Friday’s strike action has been cancelled. Saturday’s strike will still proceed as planned: 2,000 NZPFU members will walk off the job at midday on Election Day — marking the first-ever Election Day strike by firefighters in NZ history.

This follows our official notice of the first 10-hour strike in an unprecedented national escalation.

88% NZPFU MEMBERS VOTE FOR 10 HOUR STRIKES

NZPFU members have sent a clear message to FENZ and the incoming Government – the NZPFU members are standing strong in rejecting the disgraceful offer made by FENZ and have voted to walk off the job for 10 hours at a time to get a fair and reasonable deal.
