• NZPPA FREE Members Only SPECIAL WEBINAR: NEW TO THE CRIMES ACT – THEFT BY EMPLOYER (IMPACT ON PAYROLL PRACTITIONERS), 27 March 2025, 11 am to 11.40 am

  On 14 March 2025, the Crimes (Theft by Employer) Amendment Act 2025 became part of the Crimes Act 1961 (Section 220AA, Theft by Employer).

  Withholding an employee’s pay without a reasonable excuse can make the employer (and potentially a payroll practitioner) criminally liable. If this is found to have happened, individuals could face up to one year in prison and/or a $5,000 fine. All other employers could face a fine of up to $30,000.

  In this special webinar, we will discuss this new amendment to the Crimes Act 1961 and provide examples of what payroll needs to do to ensure employees’ wages are not unlawfully withheld. We will also cover how payroll practitioners can ensure any advice to hold employee wages is based on sound legislative requirements.

  This webinar will be recorded, and once published, a copy will be sent to all attendees who have booked, along with the presentation notes (PDF).

  NZPPA Special Webinar: Extra Pay (Lump Sum) Essentials – 10 April 2025 (9 am to 11.30 am)

  Extra pay, commonly known as lump sum payments (also referred to as extra emoluments), is a payment that is not regularly included in salary or wages for a pay period. Extra pay uses an annualised calculation to determine the tax rate. As of 1 April 2025, a new approach will apply to extra pay as part of termination pay.

  In this online seminar, both the current and new approaches (for termination and extra pay) will be fully covered, with explanations for each type of extra pay, the reasons for it, and fully worked examples demonstrating the different approaches.

  All NZPPA webinars are recorded, and attendees will receive a link to the recorded session. Comprehensive PDF course notes will be provided during and after the webinar, along with access to the NZPPA support email. You are encouraged to ask questions.
