Document background
This Part Time To Full Time Offer Letter is designed for New Zealand employers who wish to formally offer full-time employment to their existing part-time employees. The document is typically used when a business has the need and capacity to increase an employee's hours to full-time status, often due to business growth, increased workload, or recognition of employee performance. It addresses the legal requirements under New Zealand employment law while providing clarity on the new terms of employment. The letter should be used after internal approval processes are complete and before the intended start date of the full-time position, allowing sufficient time for the employee to consider the offer. It serves as an important legal document that, when accepted, modifies the existing employment relationship and terms.
