Kiwis can now see online what companies have received payments under the Government's Covid-19 wage subsidy scheme.
People can type in their employer, or any New Zealand company, into the Ministry of Social Development's search tool and see the total sum the scheme has forked out to a company.
Thenumber of employees receiving payment from the scheme will also pop up.
Publishing the information ensures payments are transparent and the scheme is accountable to the public, the ministry website states.
If you see your employer is receiving the subsidy payments, but don't see the money in your bank account, take it up with your boss, the ministry says.
