October 2018 Newsletter

WELCOME TO OUR OCTOBER NEWSLETTER

Daylight saving started when clocks went forward by 1 hour at 2:00 am on 30 September 2018.  It occurs on the last Sunday in September, and ends on the first Sunday in April. This period is known as ‘New Zealand daylight saving time.

If an employee is working a shift when daylight saving time starts they work an hour less than they otherwise would have, however they must not be disadvantaged (i.e. they should be paid their pay and allowances for the lost hour).

BACKUP WOF

We have been conducting a number of Backup WOF’s over the last month and strongly recommend that you do a server backup test restore of Greentree and run Greentree from that restored location to validate data integrity from the restore on a regular basis (at least every three months).

75% of small businesses don’t have a disaster recovery plan in place.  Further, more than 90% of companies that experience at least seven days of data centre downtime go out of business with a year. 

Give us a call if you need assistance with this.
