Max Whitehead: Employment law expert on the investigations into Xero's former chief executive Sir Rod Drury
An employment expert's raising his eyebrows over Xero investigating complaints against the newly crowned New Zealander of the Year.
The tech company's reviewing a decade-old accusation of inappropriate behaviour from former chief executive Sir Rod Drury - which has come to light, and he denies.
Employment relations specialist Max Whitehead says Xero can't do much.
"It's a mystery why Xero are taking any action, there's a 90-day limit on taking a personal grievance. The other thing is that maybe the Human Rights commission - but there's a 12-month limit on that."
