Fiji bans several villages from seasonal work in NZ after misconduct

Several Fijian villages have been banned for four years from taking part in New Zealand's seasonal worker programme after complaints from employers. More than two dozen villages or settlements have been suspended from the programme.

The Fiji government said it had received reports from the New Zealand government about misconduct and disorderly behaviour among Fijian workers.

"Recent reports revealed that the issues raised by the NZ employers are alcohol related, failing to report to work, not showing respect, poor leadership, unhygienic living, high absenteeism and undue influence from the Fijian community in New Zealand." said The Employment Minister Jone Usamate.

"These seasonal workers were employed with Provine, Bostok, Mr Apple, Teamwork and Apata in New Zealand," he said.
