The Workplace Relations Minister says businesses want the Government to simplify employment laws. 

Brooke van Velden has laid out her agenda for this term, including focusing on regulations around contractors, public holidays, health and safety rules, and personal grievances 

Also a priority is sorting out the law around holidays. 

van Velden told Mike Hosking that she wants to simplify laws and give certainty around the Holidays Act. 

She says because the law is so complex, a lot of businesses have found themselves non-compliant, even the Ministry of Business, Innovation and Employment.
