Agreement From Employees to Apply for the Subsidy | Practical Advice

Mon Aug. 23rd 2021

It has come to our attention that before applying for the subsidy employers must take all practicable steps to obtain consent from their staff to share their personal information with the Ministry of Social Development.

Even if you did this last year the advice we have received is that the exercise should be repeated for the current subsidy.

If you have already applied for the subsidy and don’t have the written consent from staff to apply, we recommend you do this as soon as possible.

If you would like the template for this purpose please let us know or if you have any questions, just call.


You can expect exceptional client care and service information and to be supported with integrity, respect and empathy. I felt my interests were promoted and protected that Thelma supported me without any compromising influences or loyalties
