When Clifford Hallett blows out the candles on his cake in a couple of weeks, he'll likely wish for an extra leave day to celebrate.
Hallett has launched a petition to Parliament requesting it pass legislation to give all employees that right.

At his funeral, Painter was described as a mentor, listener, supporter and good friend to many, who “absolutely stood up for what he believed in and encouraged others to do the same.”
Well known in Upper Hutt due to his links to cricket and rugby, he had also been a high profile police dog handler.
In 1997, Painter was awarded the Queen’s Service Medal for services to the public.
After retiring he took up sports massage and teams he worked with included the All Blacks, Hurricanes and Wellington Lions.
He was a life member of the Upper Hutt Rams.
