Guess who’s back… and newly married!
After a couple months away for a big, bold, beautiful and very chaotic wedding, Sanam is back behind the mic! And she is ready to dive into the latest shake up in New Zealand employment law.
The Employment Relations Amendment Act 2026 has officially passed.
That means new rules, new thresholds, and plenty of questions for employers.
What does the contractor gateway test actually mean in practice?
Does the $200k unjustified dismissal threshold change the game?
And do businesses need to do now?
This episode is a quick catch up and an open invitation to the Law Lenz community.
Send through your questions and Sanam will tackle them in next week’s deep dive.
