Paul Goulter: NZNO chief executive voices outrage with the Government's planned overhaul of the pay equity claims system - Heather du Plessis-Allan Drive

The Government is planning a massive overhaul of New Zealand’s pay equity regime - and the New Zealand Nurses Organisation doesn't approve.

The reforms will overhaul a 2020 law establishing a regime to allow people in sectors with a large female workforce to argue that they were underpaid relative to similar work done in male-dominated sectors.

NZNO chief executive Paul Goulter says these proposed changes are 'disappointing'.

"We've called it shameful - and our members are really upset about this, they've been ringing in all day."
