Workers at Pact Packaging in Lower Hutt have gone on strike demanding a living wage, rejecting a meager 66-cent hourly raise that falls far short of the $29.90 living wage benchmark. Many earn around $26/hour and are struggling to cover rising costs like rates, insurance, and new water taxes. A four-year employee called the offer “crap,” noting that even newer staff would barely exceed minimum wage. Nightshift workers and union members rallied outside the plant in solidarity. While Pact Group says it’s committed to good-faith bargaining under a multi-company collective agreement, tensions remain high as negotiations continue — with workers pushing for pay that actually keeps up with inflation and supports their livelihoods.
