More than 100,000 employment agreements have been completed using an online tool refreshed by Business.govt.nz just over one year ago.
As a government, we are committed to helping New Zealand’s small businesses thrive, and the Employment Agreement Builder is just one way we are helping small businesses get ahead.
Using the Employment Agreement Builder, you can create employment agreements tailored to meet the needs of your business, with clauses clearly labelled mandatory, recommended, or voluntary.
Accessible online, mobile-friendly, and with the ability to save users progress, this tool adds up to more time for business owners to work on their business, and less time on compliance.
Increasing users
Since the tool was refreshed 127,671 people have visited the site to create employment agreements and learn about their rights and responsibilities, with the tool receiving a 95% positive feedback rating.
An employment agreement is the foundation of a good employment relationship, clearly setting out expectations for both employers and employees, and helping to avoid disputes.
With the Employment Agreement Builder and other Business.govt.nz tools such as the Workplace Policy Builder we are making it easier for businesses to create positive and productive workplaces.
