Definitions

Directly employed workers

Directly employed workers, including casual workers, are as defined by the Employment Relations Act 2000.

Indirectly employed workers

Indirectly employed workers are those performing regular work in the workplace—for example, cleaners, hospitality workers, and security services.

This generally applies to work done on the premises, but some contracting out is not necessarily on the premises (e.g., bookkeeping, deliveries) and could take place in other workplaces or in the home.

In some cases, the workplace is not a building and the contracted work could be out in the community (e.g., construction, home care, truck driving).

Wider procurement issues—such as contracts the employer has with printers, telecommunication providers, and electricity retailers—are, for the purposes of this process, not considered “regular and ongoing.”

Union

Union is as defined by the Employment Relations Act 2000 (Part 4).

Living Wage Employer

Living Wage Employer includes any franchiser and its franchisees; i.e., a Living Wage franchiser must ensure all franchisees are also meeting the criteria for a Living Wage.
