AUCKLAND CLOTHING WORKERS
ANNUAL PAID HOLIDAY I United Press Association) j AUCKLAND, 12th December ; Workers in the clothing trade includ|ing apprentices will be granted an annual holiday of five days on full pay on the completion of each year of service as the result of arrangements made at a meeting of Auckland employers. This decision was explained at a special meeting of the Auckland Male Clothing Trades Employees’ Union, when it was stated that the first year of service was ms' ed to have begun on lst Januai 'y An earlier decision of the Auckland manufacturers not to grant workers annual paid holidays till they had completed 12 months’ service from the initial date of the awards was stated to have aroused resentment among the j workers. Subsequently, however, a con- i ference took place in Christchurch, and : subject to the confirmation of provin- ! Cial employers’ organisations and trade unions, it was agreed that employees should have paid holidays this I year The arrangement now approved by Auckland employers is similar to the Christchurch decision.
