Further to my earlier post about the hoops Te Whatu Ora makes former employees go through in the Holiday Act remediation payments - even if they were employed for just 18 months and on a salary - I can report I am now the luck recipient of $44.74 I never knew (nor cared) I was entitled to

I worked at Waitemata DHB for my last 18 months in Auckland, 13-14 years ago. I was paid a salary. I'm now having to go through a complex rigmarole because apparently they managed to get my holiday pay wrong ON A SALARY. I'm due a refund. It'll probably be about $5
