It doesn\u2019t just include physical violence, but sexual and psychological abuse as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Is family violence leave supported by New Zealand employment law?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Yes, paid family violence leave is part of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.legislation.govt.nz\/act\/public\/2018\/0021\/latest\/DLM7054315.html\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Domestic Violence \u2013 Victims\u2019 Protection Act 2018<\/a>. This Act, along with the Holidays Act 2003, governs the key entitlements, pay obligations and conditions of family violence leave in New Zealand.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How much paid family violence leave are employees entitled to?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Under the Act, employees affected by family violence <a href=\"https:\/\/www.employment.govt.nz\/leave-and-holidays\/family-violence-leave\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">are entitled to<\/a>:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Take 10 days of paid family violence leave per year (paid at the rate of average daily pay).<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Ask for short-term flexible working arrangements for up to two months.<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Not be treated adversely at work due to their circumstances.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Entitlements for employees begin when the employee has worked for the same employer for six consecutive months, although the employer and employee may reach an agreement to take the leave in advance if they\u2019re not yet at that milestone.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Whether the leave is granted or not, employers must give the employee information about at least one suitable family violence support service that can provide help. They can do this when they give their written answer to the employee\u2019s request for family violence leave.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Flexible working arrangements<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>All eligible employees can request short-term flexible working up to 2 months as part of paid family violence leave. These flexible working arrangements can involve a change in job responsibilities, a change of location, or different starting and finishing times. Employers must respond within 10 days of this request being made, and it must be considered fairly, honestly and in good faith.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Which employees are eligible for these leave entitlements?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Any employee who is affected by family violence, or supporting a child who has experienced family violence, can take this type of leave. Employers are entitled to ask for proof of family violence, but should consider carefully the challenges of acquiring this proof, especially in situations which can change quickly. It\u2019s important to note that it doesn\u2019t matter when the family violence took place.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Even if the family violence occurred before the employee started working for the current employer, they can still apply for family violence leave.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How can employers provide support to employees who have experienced family violence?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Employers are legally bound to give eligible employees the option to request family violence leave. However, to support your employees in a challenging and stressful time, there is more you can do. Here are some ideas.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Respond to their request in a timely manner<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>In situations where family violence is involved, issues at home often have to be addressed quickly. To support your employees, ensure that you respond to any family violence leave requests in good time. While the Act states that you only need to provide a written answer within 10 days, the sooner the better.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Maintain confidentiality<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>It is critical that you respect your employee\u2019s confidentiality when it comes to sensitive personal issues. Ensure that the type of leave request and the reasons behind the family violence leave remain on a need to know basis in the company, and that the employee is aware of who is informed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h3 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Ask whether there\u2019s anything else you can do<\/h3>\n\n\n\n<p>Knowing that their employer is there for additional support can be a great help for an affected employee. When it comes to supporting your employee, it\u2019s always best to just ask them. They\u2019ll know best what you can do to make things easier for them, whether it\u2019s ensuring greater security in the office, removing their public contact information on the company website, or facilitating some pay in advance.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">New Zealand organisations who support victims of family violence<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>Here\u2019s a few leading New Zealand organisations to support those affected by family violence:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.areyouok.org.nz\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>Are You OK<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/nnfvs.org.nz\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>National Network of Family Violence Services<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.2shine.org.nz\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>Shine<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\n\n\n\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/womensrefuge.org.nz\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\"><strong>Women\u2019s Refuge<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n\n\n<p>Employers are legally obligated to provide details of support services when they receive a family violence leave request.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Find out how 91爆料 can help you in managing leave entitlements<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-paragraph-2-m-font-size\">Family violence leave is just one type of leave in New Zealand.
