Lord Nuffield’s Lead
In collaboration with his staff and work-people, Lord Nuffield has arranged that in all the factories under his control not only shall war work proceed seven days a week, but that where material is available overtime shall be worked by both day and night shifts as well. It has also been agreed that the question of any holidays shall be left in abeyance, but that where “holidays with pay” would normally have been granted, the extra pay under the Nuffield scheme will be forthcoming whether holidays are taken or not. Cutlery In Kitchen Waste If it had not been for the vigilance of the contractor who purchases the kitchen waste at the Auckland Hospital for use as pig food, the institution would have suffered a loss of 58 spoons and four knives in the last year. In a report presented to the Hospital Board it was stated that this amount of cutlery had accumulated over the last 12 months, and had been detected by the contractor in the bins collected from the vzards and kitchens and the nurses’ home.
