✨ Salary Scales for General and Educational Divisions

DEC. 6.] THE NEW ZEALAND GAZETTE. 2697

SCALES FOR GENERAL AND EDUCATIONAL DIVISIONS.

Workers not otherwise specified receive not less than current award rates or other ruling rates if no award is in
existence. The scale may be raised slightly or the annual increments varied according to local conditions.
When increments of less than £10 are provided, double increments may be granted in special cases.
In the column “Annual Increments” the normal annual increment is shown. The last increment shall, where
necessary, be such lesser sum as will enable the maximum to be attained, but not exceeded.
An officer does not necessarily proceed to the maximum shown. His salary may be fixed at any point between
the minimum and the maximum.

As the Gazette has been published for more than 185 years, copyright status depends on the publication date of each issue:

1840–1925 (Public Domain): Issues of the New Zealand Gazette and Provincial Gazettes from this period are in the public domain, as the term of Crown copyright (100 years) has expired. Mechanical reproductions (e.g., scanned PDFs) of these public domain documents do not attract new copyright.
1926–1999 (Crown Copyright): Issues from this period remain subject to Crown copyright. Usage of these issues in this project is "Fair Dealing" for research purposes and consistent with the spirit of the open-access principles championed by NZGOAL, ie, "The default licensing position under ... NZGOAL is the Creative Commons Attribution 4.0 International licence ... [t]o the greatest extent possible, agencies should apply this licence to copyright material on their websites"
