KiwiRail offers voluntary redundancy to all staff
KiwiRail is offering voluntary redundancies across its entire workforce starting Monday. In a staff email obtained by RNZ, KiwiRail said the move is to "reshape the business and lower costs" and they'll work with affected staff and unions, exploring options like redeployment.
