The Human Resources Institute of New Zealand is a not-for-profit membership association for anyone working in human resources. The membership of HRINZ has grown steadily in the past decade and our numbers now exceed 3,700 individual members, which is just over 50% of the total HR market. This compares very favourably with other membership associations, both within New Zealand and internationally.
Our members are mainly working in private and public sector organisations throughout New Zealand and they represent HR practitioners at all levels. Our conferences usually attract a good cross-section from all levels of practice, with plenty of representation of mid and senior level practitioners. These are often the decision makers for their organisations and they are also the people we hope will have the most influence to bring about change.
We are recognised as one of the most progressive, professional and desirable membership organisations in New Zealand.

Major events
HRINZ National Conference
‘Restoring the Trust’
1-3 September 2010
Wellington Convention Centre
www.conference.hrinz.org.nz
This conference addresses the opportunities that come with economic recovery, but more importantly looks at the darker side of the last two years and explores what we did badly, what we did well, and what we have learnt. These lessons will take us forward into the changed work place created in the wake of this particularly unsettling recession.
Trust – the lack of it or the breaking of it – has featured strongly in many conversations over the last few years and it will be trust, robustness and resilience that will help us to rebuild a culture of workplace health, wealth and happiness so vital to our economic survival and ultimate success.
