Resumen

The object of this Act is to build productive employment relationships through the promotion of good faith in all aspects of the employment environment and of the employment relationship (1) by recognizing that employment relationships must be built not only on the implied mutual obligations of trust and confidence, but also on a legislative requirement for good faith behavior; (2) by acknowledging and addressing the inherent inequality of power in employment relationships; and (3) by promoting collective bargaining; and (4) by protecting the integrity of individual choice; (5) by promoting mediation as the primary problem-solving mechanism other than for enforcing employment standards; (6) by reducing the need for judicial intervention. The Act also aims at promoting the effective enforcement of employment standards, in particular by conferring enforcement powers on Labour Inspectors, the Authority, and the court; and at promoting observance in New Zealand of the principles underlying International Labour Organisation Convention 87 on Freedom of Association, and Convention 98 on the Right to Organise and Bargain Collectively.
