The Employment Leave Act 2026 was passed on 6 August 2026 and replaces the Holidays Act 2003 from 6 August 2028. Leave will accrue in hours from day one (0.0769 hours per hour worked for annual leave, 0.0385 for sick leave), casual employees will get a minimum 12.5% leave compensation instead of 8% holiday pay, and up to 25% of annual leave can be cashed up each year. Until August 2028 the current rules — and this calculator — apply.\"}}]}\u003c\/script\u003e\n\u003cnav class=\"related\" aria-label=\"Related NZ calculators\"\u003e\u003ch2\u003eRelated NZ calculators\u003c\/h2\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/collections\/hours-timesheet-calculator-nz\"\u003eHours \u0026amp; timesheet calculator\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/collections\/working-days-calculator-nz\"\u003eWorking days calculator NZ\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/collections\/income-tax-calculator-nz\"\u003eIncome tax calculator NZ\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/collections\/margin-markup-calculator-nz\"\u003eMargin \u0026amp; markup calculator\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\u003ca href=\"\/collections\/nz-calculators\"\u003eAll NZ calculators\u003c\/a\u003e\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003c\/nav\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","products":[{"product_id":"nz-landlord-pack-rental-property-tracker-healthy-homes-checklist-excel-google-sheets-digital-download","title":"NZ Landlord Pack — Rental Property Tracker + Healthy Homes Checklist","description":"\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eEvery record your accountant asks for in April — kept in one place all year.\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eInstant download, no shipping.\u003c\/strong\u003e Your secure download link is emailed within minutes of checkout.
