The Mike Hosking Breakfast - A podcast by Newstalk ZB - Sundays
Te Whatu Ora is undeterred by revelations their contractors may not have been earning their keep. New documents show significant deficiencies in the agency's hiring processes, also revealing they had more than 1,000 highly paid contractors as of December last year. That number has dropped to just over 600 following the audit. Te Whatu Ora's Chief People Officer Andrew Slater told Mike Hosking a large number of the contractors were inherited. He says they're sorting it out, having cut more than half from December to June. Slater adds they have 16,500 people working back office jobs.
