Northern Branch Elections Voting Link

Posted 16 Jul '23 under Northern Branch

With only 6 days to go until the election for the Northern Branch President and Vice-President ends, it has been brought to my attention that some members have had problems finding their secure voting link.

It appears that some members with Gmail and Hotmail email addresses are finding the link in the "Trash" or "Spam" folders. Please check these folders. The link still works.

The last reminder containing a link to vote was emailed on the 10th July at 1200, the next reminder will be sent tomorrow, 17th July at 1200. Voting closes 5pm Friday 21 July 2023.

If you do not receive the email, or have any issues accessing the link please contact the NZPFU Webmaster directly at: webmaster@nzpfu.org.nz

Your vote is important.

NZPFU Northern Branch Returning Officer

Return to Work Duties

23 Feb

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.
