What is a DHB?
District Health Boards (DHBs) are responsible for providing, or
funding the provision of, health and disability services in their
district.
There are 21 DHBs in New Zealand. The statutory objectives of DHBs
include:
-
improving,
promoting and protecting the health of communities
-
promoting the
integration of health services, especially primary and secondary
care services
-
promoting
effective care or support of those in need of personal health
services or disability support.
Other
DHB objectives include promoting the inclusion and participation in
society and independence of people with disabilities, reducing
health disparities by improving health outcomes for Maori and other
population groups, and to reduce toward elimination, health outcome
disparities between various population groups.
DHBs are expected to show a sense of social responsibility, to
foster community participation in health improvement, and to uphold
the ethical and quality standards commonly expected of providers of
services and public sector organisations.

What is CMDHB's Leave Policy?
Leave
provisions depend entirely on your current and future employment
agreements. This is a great question to bring up at your
interview or with your hiring manager if you are offered a
position. As the Holidays Act 2003 states, in most cases any
annual leave balance is paid out when an employee resigns so is
not transferred between employers/DHBs.
