If re-elected, Labour will increase minimum sick leave entitlements from five to 10 days per year.
National leader Judith Collins says this - and plans to increase the minimum wage to 20-dollars an hour next year - shows Labour's out of touch with small businesses.
She says this will cripple businesses, and make it harder for workers to keep their jobs.
Judith Collins says National believes in a flexible work place but to legislate for any change in sick leave when small businesses are fighting for survival is incomprehensible.
