Robson supports family friendly Easter for posties

"I welcome the four day weekend for posties this Easter because posties, like the rest of the workforce, need to spend adequate recreation time with their friends and families to relax and revive. The modern workplace puts a lot of stress on families and workers and this small contribution to their well-being will pay off at work and at home,” said Matt Robson MP.

"Congratulations to NZ Post for taking care of your most precious resource, your workers. This is what my four weeks leave bill is all about - balancing work and life, and taking care of families.”

NZ Post has delivered a postcard to all households seeking feedback.

"I have sent my postcard back to NZ Post to endorse their action. I am sure that the majority of New Zealanders will give their support," said Matt Robson Progressive MP.
