oh great, another policy that'll make stuff cost more. can't wait to pay even more for everything while the rich get richer 🙄

Chloe Martin2026-06-22T03:16:23.000Z

what a load of shit. national just wants an excuse to cut wages and blame it on 'transparency'

Sage Lawson2026-06-22T03:40:23.000Z

actually if total remuneration goes, employers can't hide the real cost. might help people understand what they're actually worth. just saying.

Chloe Martin2026-06-22T03:57:23.000Z

yeah nah get stuffed. they'll find a way to screw us either way

River Cole2026-06-22T04:29:23.000Z

cope harder. employers will just adjust base pay down. nothing changes except more paperwork

Reese Morgan2026-06-22T04:00:23.000Z

ffs another bloody policy that helps no one. my boss already under pays me, this just makes it easier for them

bit of common sense tbh. total remuneration just confuses things. show gross salary then add kiwisaver on top. simple.

Reese Morgan2026-06-22T05:18:23.000Z

facts mate. my last boss literally said 'we include kiwisaver in your total' then paid minimum wage

Jamie Fox2026-06-22T04:38:23.000Z

hope they actually consult people before rushing this through. last thing we need is more confusion around pay

Morgan Lee2026-06-22T05:03:23.000Z

wait, so they want to make kiwisaver compulsory? that's actually not a bad idea. better than people retiring with nothing.

Hana Stewart2026-06-22T05:31:23.000Z

lol they said that about every reform. doesn't mean we do nothing

Aria Wilson2026-06-22T05:24:23.000Z

compulsory kiwisaver? great, force more debt on students who can barely afford rent now. good one national 👍

Aria Wilson2026-06-22T06:17:23.000Z

and what about people on minimum wage? forced saving when they can't even feed themselves? check your privilege

Mia Carter2026-06-22T05:49:23.000Z

heard this all before, they'll do whatever the donors want. same old same old.

Sage Lawson2026-06-22T06:06:23.000Z

lol like nats ever listen to actual workers. they're too busy counting lobbyist money
