Long Service Leave Entitlement

Long Service Leave Entitlement



Applies to: all WSL team

Overview

Your employment agreement sets out your current annual, bereavement and sick/domestic leave entitlements and benefits. We ensure we meet NZ employment law requirements and exceed them in some cases. 

Entitlement

We recognise exceptional commitment to the business through your length of service by offering a long service leave benefit.

At 10, 20 and 30 years' service you get an additional one-off special allocation of an extra four weeks leave. 

This leave is to be taken within 2 years of falling due unless you have your Manager's approval. Your manager will need at least 3 months written notice for leave requests of 4 weeks or more to allow for sufficient time to arrange work cover.

FAQ's

Will the extra 4 weeks be added on to my leave balance all at once?
The extra 4 weeks will be added all at once. This will be added in the next standard pay run after your anniversary date.
You can view your long service leave balance through My Pay by clicking on 'My Leave.' Long Service Leave is a separate leave type to Annual leave.
