NZ Bus confirms that it has completed negotiations with First Union and has agreed a two year term, including a 2.9%
increase to $21.15 in the first year which aligns with the Living Wage.
Barry Hinkley, NZ Bus CEO, said that “we appreciate the constructive approach of the unions to negotiations which
enabled a prompt agreement and minimal disruption to our customers. We also thank the Bay of Plenty Regional Council for
their support of the Living Wage for our drivers.”
