11月25日新西兰新闻秘书处消息,妇女事务部长扬·蒂内蒂(Jan Tinetti)今天宣布,新西兰政府将把薪酬平等扩大至所有雇用社会工作者,社区和部落组织将从政府获得资金。

妇女事务部长扬·蒂内蒂说:”我们预计这将改善大约4,600名社会工作者的生活。这一延期意味着成千上万的社会工作者将获得公平的报酬。
它还将通过取消供应商通过自己的单独薪酬公平索赔来简化流程。
政府的这项协议意味着所有雇用社会工作者薪㇏酬公平工作组的官员将立即开始一项重要的工作,以确定该行业的所有相关提供者,并确定他们有多少社会工作者被此扩展所覆盖。
继10月份的工作之后,我们宣布为五个社区和本地组织雇用的近500名社会工作者提供薪酬公平和解。他们加入了超过105,000名其他工人的行列,自2017年以来,由于薪酬公平索赔,他们现在已经收到了工资修正。
此次延期是监督和支持资助部门薪酬公平索赔框架下的第一次,对于我们宝贵而勤奋的社区社会工作者来说,这将是真正而重大的变化。
我鼓励社区部门参与这项即将到来的工作,因为你们的声音对于确保所有提供者和劳动人民都被捕获以为所有人提供薪酬公平至关重要”。
社会发展和就业部长卡梅尔·塞普洛尼说:”今天的宣布是朝着正确方向迈出的又一步。
作为政府,我们通过强制社会工作者注册,增加整个社会部门的投资,继续使社会工作专业化的工作来支持该部门,我们的下一步是实施新的社会部门委托工作,这将有助于我们更好地支持跨社区的社会工作者的工作。
这份薪酬公平协议认可了整个系统的社会工作者,并表明他们所做的工作是重要的,有价值的,值得同工同酬。它还将对各部门留住工作人员以及为新工作人员和受训人员提供确定性的能力产生积极影响。
虽然我们承认在支持该行业方面还有更多工作要做,但今天标志着我们旅程中的一个关键里程碑。
我要感谢公共服务协会(PSA)及其成员的工作,他们确保社会工作者的声音被听到”。

25 November,Pay equity extended to thousands more social workers

The Government will extend pay equity to all community and iwi organisations who employ social workers and receive funding from the Crown, Minister for Women Jan Tinetti announced today. We expect this will improve the lives of approximately 4,600 social workers.

This extension means thousands more social workers will be paid fairly,” Jan Tinetti said. “It will also streamline the process by removing the requirement for providers to work through their own separate pay equity claim. 

This agreement from Government means that officials from the pay equity taskforce at Te Kawa Mataaho will immediately begin a significant piece of work to identify all the relevant providers in the sector and identify how many social workers they have that are covered by this extension.

It follows work in October, when we announced a pay equity settlement for almost 500 social workers employed in five community and iwi organisations.

They join the over 105,000 other working people who, since 2017, have now received a pay correction as a result of a pay equity claim.

The extension is the first under the Framework for Oversight and Support of pay equity claims in the funded sector and will represent real and significant change for our valuable and hardworking community social workers.

I encourage the community sector to engage with this upcoming piece of work as your voices will be critical in ensuring all providers and working people are captured to deliver pay equity for all,” Jan Tinetti said. “Today’s announcement is another step in the right direction,” Minister for Social Development and Employment Carmel Sepuloni said.

“As a Government we have supported the sector by continuing the work which professionalised social work through the mandatory registration of social workers, increased investment across the social sector and our next step is to implement the new social sector commissioning work which will help us better support the work of social worker across communities. 

This pay equity agreement recognises social workers right across the system and shows that the work they are doing is important, valued and deserves pay equity. It will also have a positive impact on the sectors ability to retain staff as well as provide certainty for new staff members and trainees. 

While we acknowledge there is more to do when it comes to supporting the sector, today marks a key milestone in our journey,” Carmel Sepuloni said.

I want to acknowledge the work of the Public Service Association (PSA) and their members who have ensured the voices of social workers have been heard,” Jan Tinetti said.
