Commissioner of Police v Coffey [2014] NZEMPC 194
Workplace Law Specialists acted for Mr Coffey, a Business Services Manager for the New Zealand Police, based in Nelson. The position was disestablished in a restructure that occurred in 2012.
The Employment Relations Authority (ERA) determined that the restructure was unjustified, finding breaches of both Mr Coffey’s employment agreement and the Employment Relations Act 2000.
