Woolworths New Zealand agrees to a 6.8% wage hike over two years for 18,000 workers, avoiding strikes.
Woolworths New Zealand has reached a new agreement with its 18,000 supermarket workers, including a 6.8% wage increase over two years and a one-off payment before Christmas. Workers will receive a 3.3% raise in the first year and an additional 3.5% in the second year. The deal also introduces a new hourly rate for multi-skilled workers and avoids reductions to existing conditions, though it does not establish a minimum living wage or penalty rates for night and weekend work.
