ACT MP Laura Trask proposes a bill in New Zealand to facilitate mutual employment contract terminations.

ACT MP Laura Trask has proposed the Employment Relations (Termination of Employment by Agreement) Amendment Bill to help employers and employees mutually agree on contract terminations, aiming to avoid costly disputes. The bill allows for protected negotiations and compensation offers, inspired by successful UK legislation. It seeks cross-party support in New Zealand and aims to create a balanced solution while preventing escalation to the Employment Relations Authority.
