* What is a trial period?

* If I'm employed under a 90 day trial period, can my employer fire me within 90 days even if I haven’t done anything wrong?

* How much notice must I give before dismissing someone I have employed under a trial period?

* I have worked casually for my employer in the past, now they want to employ me fulltime on a trial period. Is this allowed?

* How much notice must I give if I want to leave my job (I’m part way through a trial period)?

* What’s the difference between a trial period and a probation period?

* I have been on a two-week probation period and I didn’t get paid. Can they do that?

* When I applied for a job at a café I was asked to work unpaid for an hour as part of the interview process. Is this legal?

Toxic Algae has returned to the Hutt River at Silverstream, and Greater Wellington Regional Council is advising against swimming or walking your dog from Moonshine Park to Pomare Bridge.

There’s also new growth at Birchville, Maoribank Corner and Poets Park, though at lower levels. It’s still safe to use those parts of the river, but keep an eye out and avoid any areas where you see toxic algae.

They’re not currently concerned about toxic algae elsewhere in the region.

You’ll see educational signs along the riverbank, warning you to keep an eye out for toxic algae, and you can learn more about it in this video: www.gw.govt.nz...
