flag New Zealand strengthens public service protections for sexual harassment reporters with new support and transparency measures.

flag New Zealand’s public service is strengthening support for employees who report sexual harassment, with new standards announced by Public Service Minister Judith Collins. flag The updated "Your Complaint, Your Rights" resource ensures complainants receive dignity, respect, and fair treatment, including monthly updates on their case, legal support in complex or power-imbalanced situations, and clearer external escalation paths. flag The reforms follow a 2025 Public Service Census revealing 12% to 12.1% of staff experienced harassment or bullying, with 37% not reporting it. flag The changes reflect a zero-tolerance policy and aim to improve trust and accountability, especially after past failures in handling complaints.
