10月26日新西兰绿党消息,新西兰绿党正在庆祝法律的里程碑式变化,这将确保更多的人得到他们应得的报酬。
绿党的工作场所关系和安全发言人扬·洛吉(Jan Logie)说:”绿党长期以来一直支持公平薪酬协议,因此更多的新西兰人因所做的工作而获得公平的报酬。今天是我们建立一个适合所有人的新西兰工作向前迈出的一步″。
扬·洛吉说:“公平薪酬协议旨在确保更多的人、那些在超市、清洁工、保安、幼儿中心工作的人拥有良好的条件并获得他们应得的报酬。
剥开生活成本危机的层次,我们实际上面临的是不平等危机。工资没有跟上通货膨胀的步伐,人们不得不工作更长时间才能维持生计。
对于难以维持当前工资的人来说,公平薪酬协议将有助于改变这种状况,并确保他们的工资足以养家糊口,支付账单,并在他们的头上盖上屋顶。
在那些将从公平薪酬协议中受益最大的人中,有帮助我们的社区度过COVID-19大流行最糟糕局面的重要工作者。我们至少可以做的是向他们支付他们应得的报酬。
公平薪酬协议也将为缩小种族和性别薪酬差距做出重要贡献,确保毛利人,太平洋岛屿族裔和其他少数民族社区的妇女和人民得到公平的薪酬。
今天对新西兰劳动人民来说是一个伟大的一天,如果没有工会和工人的关键精神,这不会发生。
我要感谢工会为使新西兰成为一个更公平的地方所做的巨大贡献。这项立法表明,当我们团结起来争取有利于每个人的变革时,我们可以做些什么。
同样的集体精神也应该适用于保证护士的薪酬公平性,以及为我们的教师和消防员提供更好的薪酬和条件。
绿党很高兴支持公平薪酬协议,因为立法在整个议会中都得到了通过。
在不同的地方,我们确实明确表示,通过包括承包商和扩大协议的范围,该法案本可以变得更加有效。但即使没有这一点,公平薪酬协议也将对人们的生活产生巨大影响,我们很高兴这项立法已经通过”扬·洛吉说。
Fair pay agreements huge step towards fairer future
The Green Party is celebrating a landmark change in the law that will ensure more people are paid what they deserve.
The Green Party has long supported fair pay agreements so more New Zealanders are paid fairly for the work they do. Today is a huge step forward in our work to build an Aotearoa that works for everyone,” says the Green Party’s workplace relations and safety spokesperson, Jan Logie.
Fair pay agreements are about making sure that more people – those who work in supermarkets, cleaners, security, early childhood centres – have good conditions and are paid what they deserve.
Peel back the layers of the cost of living crisis and what we actually have is an inequality crisis. Wages have not kept up with inflation and people have to work longer in order to make ends meet.
For people struggling to get by on their current wages, fair pay agreements will help change this and ensure they are paid enough to support their families, pay the bills, and put a roof over their heads.
Amongst those who will benefit most from fair pay agreements are the essential workers who helped our communities get through the worst of the COVID-19 pandemic. The very least we can do is pay them what they deserve.
Fair pay agreements will also make an important contribution to closing the ethnic and gender pay gaps, ensuring women and people in our Māori, Pasifika and other ethnic communities will be paid fairly.
Today is a great day for the working people of New Zealand and it would not have happened without the crucial mahi of unions and workers.
I would like to acknowledge the huge contribution unions have made towards making Aotearoa a fairer place. This legislation shows what we can do when we come together to fight for change that benefits everyone.
The same collective spirit should also apply to guaranteeing pay equity for nurses, as well as better pay and conditions for our teachers and firefighters.
The Green Party was delighted to support fair pay agreements as the legislation made its way throughout Parliament.
At various points we did make clear that the bill could have been made even more effective by including contractors and widening the scope of the agreements. But even without this, fair pay agreements will make a huge difference to peoples’ lives and we’re delighted this legislation has passed,” says Jan Logie.
