We are re-calculating Leave payments for all New Zealand-based employees, past and present, going back to June 2015.
The general areas of focus are calculations for annual leave and FBAPS leave which includes,
- Family violence leave
- Bereavement
- Alternative leave days
- Public holidays
- Sick leave
Some current and former Fonterra employees may not have been paid as they should have.
If you are a former Fonterra employee, or you are a current Fonterra employee but have a former tenure with Fonterra, please register via the Registration Portal.
Frequently asked questions
How do I know if I’m entitled to a top-up?
- The identified issues primarily impacted employees on variable/changing weekly hours or pay (including normal pay, overtime, and allowances).
- Employees with more regular hours of work and pay may be affected but to a smaller degree. This means that not all employees would have been impacted by the identified issues, and the size of the impact for each employee is variable and dependent on their specific working patterns.
How do I register my interest in getting my leave payments recalculated?
Register your details with us via the Registration Portal. We will validate your information against our records and if your employment is within the time being remediated, we will recalculate your leave payments and let you know the outcome.
How do I claim on behalf of someone who has passed away, or someone for whom I hold power of attorney?
If you receive an email regarding a remediation payment or believe you are entitled to a remediation payment on behalf of an estate or a person for whom you hold power of attorney, you will be able to lodge this request via the portal next year.
