Absolutely tautoko Dr @SereanaNaepi!
"We need to say we really like your gender pay gap legislation, we really appreciate this & we’d really love it if you pushed the ethnic pay gap too."
No one should wait for pay equity!

Māori, Pacific, Asian & ethnic minorities are falling through the cracks —we cannot ask our people to wait for equity, telling them their lived experiences of pay & racial discrimination don’t require urgent addressing.
We must & should do better. PERIOD.

As EEO Commissioner, I am appalled to see this blatant disrespect of our migrant peoples and abuse of legitimate systems put in place to strengthen our businesses and collective prosperity.

While I welcome proposed #paytransparency legislation that will help close our gender pay gaps, it simply doesn't go far enough - certainly not for over a million people that include Māori, Pacific, Asian and ethnic minorities that will miss out.

I welcome the urgent review requested by the Govt into the Accredited Employer Work Visa Scheme.
@NZHumanRights continues to receive reports of migrant exploitation in both RSE & AEWV Schemes - casting serious doubts on our ethical commitments.

I commend the bravery of these workers for speaking out, despite their fears of repercussions not only for them but their families awaiting them in their original homelands.
What happened to basic human decency?

Woohoo! The moment we've been waiting for! 🙌
Today’s unveiling of #paytransparency legislation comes after 5 long years of sustained advocacy and campaigning led by @NZHumanRights. It's been a long journey to get here.
What does this mean for us?

"It requires a constitution that reflects our foundation in te Tiriti o Waitangi and our multi-cultural, multi-ethnic society. It also requires a constitution established by law and under which power can be held in check by law," she adds.

"There’s a different vision that needs to be embraced here, one where local communities are in the driving seat, supported by councils and government. There is a concern that this isn’t happening and things are too centrally driven," said @PaulHuntSRights
