When and how can you suspend work?
There are three situations where you might want to suspend work. The fi rst is where you badly need to take a break or it is overwhelmingly in your interests to do so. Examples of that would be where a competitor poaches your senior staff , you suffer a serious illness, the Christmas holidays arrive, you are offered a project in Dubai that will set you up for life, or you win Lotto. The second situation is where you simply cannot continue because a third party has intervened or some natural event has occurred – for example where some critical components aren’t delivered, or your plant and machinery breaks down or is destroyed in a fi re, or you get a lawyer’s letter saying the design you are manufacturing to is someone else’s intellectual property. The third situation is where your customer is in default – such as by not paying you, not issuing directions, or not giving you access to install your product.
It might surprise you to learn that in none of those situations do you have an automatic right to suspend work. Under your joinery contract you have undertaken to work diligently and conscientiously until the project is completed, and unless the contract lets you off the hook, you have to see it through to the end. If you plan to take a holiday midproject, you need to have made that clear at the outset. If you win an all-expenses-paid, two-month trip to the World Cup, that’s too bad, unless you can arrange cover for yourself.
And the most surprising thing of all, is that if your customer is well overdue in payment and has no reasonable excuse, the law still requires you to keep honouring your obligations regardless. That is, unless prior payment is a precondition to you starting or continuing work. Or, the customer’s default is so bad that you can actually cancel the joinery contract (assuming you want to). If you don’t have those rights, then the theory is that you have a process under the contract or under the general law for recovering your payment – whether that be mediation, arbitration, adjudication, the Disputes Tribunals, or the Courts – and in the meantime you have to keep working.
Fortunately there are four exceptions to the rule:
1. If the contract is “frustrated” (which means it become impossible to perform – such as where the building you are making the joinery for disappears into the sea) then the law gives you a get-outof-jail card. However this situation is very rare.
2. Most sophisticated contracts allow you to suspend work in “force majeure” situations where you are held up by things beyond your control like earthquakes, volcanic eruptions, tsunamis, fl oods, wildfi res, states of emergency, riots, strikes or lockouts.
However to do so you need to have a written joinery contract that contains a force majeure clause.
3. Regardless of your contract, the Construction Contracts Act allows you to suspend work if you have given your customer a valid payment claim, and the customer either hasn’t given you a valid payment schedule in time, or hasn’t paid what the payment schedule said would be paid. But there are a few traps to look out for here. First, there aren’t many tradesmen who manage to satisfy all the criteria for a valid payment claim under the Act. Secondly, even if you have, you then have to give the customer a special written notice and allow fi ve working days for the notice to be complied with, before you can suspend. Thirdly, as soon as you do get paid you have to resume work immediately – not when it suits you.
4. However the best option of all is to use a joinery contract that allows you to suspend work in situations where it would be unfair to make you behave like a saint when your client is behaving like a sinner.
If you are required to sign up to one of the NZ Standards or NZ Institute of Architects contracts, they do give you some suspension rights, but they are not as favourable to you as they might be. Under the NZS contracts you can suspend work for non-payment or for some other persistent, flagrant or wilful default, but you have to give a written warning and allow the customer time to comply. Under the NZIA contracts you can suspend work if you have not been paid or you have not been provided with security for payment, but there is a similar requirement to allow time to remedy the default. However the biggest obstacle is that you are prohibited from suspending work during a dispute, and there are very few construction projects where an alleged default is not disputed.
Ideally your joinery contract would give you two specific rights to suspend work. The fi rst is where the customer has not complied with his/her/its obligations, whatever those obligations may be. Then you could suspend work as soon as you have given the customer a written notice of suspension that identifi es the particular default relied upon, and states that you will be suspending work. The second situation is where you have reasonable cause for concern about the customer’s ability to pay your future invoices. Under your contract, you could ask for security for payment such as a bond or money paid in advance, and if you don’t get it within a specifi ed number of days, you could then suspend work.
The important point to note is that there would have to be a genuine default on the part of the customer before you can suspend, and there is a process you would have to follow. If you don’t have valid grounds, or you don’t follow that process, then you would be in default and it is you who will be liable to the customer. The process should be outlined in the contract, and chances are it will be more complicated if you are actually installing your handiwork on the customer’s site. In that case it is unlikely that you could just pull your guys off the job and assume that it will be okay. When you send the notice, there are certain issues that it may be important for you to address.
Before you down tools there may be some critical work you need to do to secure the site to prevent vandalism, theft, or obvious health and safety risks, or to avoid damage due to exposure to the elements. Use your common sense here, and take basic precautions before vacating the site. You might even need to remove scaff olding or other plant and equipment to avoid incurring unnecessary hire charges, if the suspension looks like it will last for a while. Ideally all costs and expenses that you incur because of the suspension, including the costs of recommencing work, should be chargeable as a variation under your joinery contract.
The most important point to emphasise in your suspension notice is that you are ready, willing and able to resume work once the default is remedied. This is to avoid the impression that you have abandoned the project for good, or cancelled the joinery contract, which could expose you to a claim for damages for unlawful termination. You should reserve your right to cancel if the delay drags on too long, but make it clear that that hasn’t happened yet. You should also point out that if you remove your plant and equipment off site, that is merely for security reasons so they are not vandalised or stolen, or so that you can use them elsewhere or avoid paying unnecessary rental on them, and it is not to be interpreted as evidence that you have departed for good.
From a practical point of view, you will not be able to eff ectively manage health and safety risks while you are away from the site, so you should put on record that primary responsibility for health and safety logically reverts to the customer during the period of suspension, as the party best able to manage and control what goes on at the site.
Suspension of work should automatically extend any required completion date under your contract. The resulting delay may result in the contract works insurance lapsing before the new completion date, so someone will need to extend the policy. Typically in a renovation that will be the owner, and in a new build it will be the head contractor. Bear in mind that if the cost is on you, you will want the right to recover it as a variation. Once you suspend work you will have to reallocate your resources to other projects to generate income and keep your staff occupied, and it will be diffi cult to predict when you will free up again. It is important that your contract doesn’t require you to resume work immediately the customer’s default is remedied, because that may be difficult for a small joinery business. Your suspension notice should therefore state that the precise date of recommencement will depend on your commitments at the time and will have to be mutually agreed.
Finally, you should bear in mind that any fi xed pricing or cost estimates you gave your customer originally were based on prevailing rates at the time and may not adequately cover your costs at the time of recommencement. If you have cost adjustment provisions in your joinery contract then you will be covered. Although you may need to hold your costs as much as reasonably possible you should be able to reprice the job at the time to ensure that your profi t margin is not eroded.

STATE OF THE INDUSTRY
Reports from Branch Presidents February 2022
AUCKLAND / NORTHLAND
Auckland region over all has started this year with a good amount of forward work and plenty of activity, however, there is concern where 2022 may end up. We are hearing in the market that building projects are being put on hold or cancelled mainly due to the ever-increasing cost of materials across the building sector which is putting projects well over budget and no longer aff ordable. Hardware suppliers now holding higher stock levels is making business a lot smoother in the exterior timber window and door sector, however the kitchen industry is still on restricted supply, hence completing jobs is diffi cult. We are seeing continuing price increases in imported timber, due to world supply and demand and the current cost of shipping. Supply of Cedar and the ever-increasing cost is at a level we haven’t experienced before. The cost of cedar increased 60% in 2021, with February 2022 seeing a further 15% increase. Selected sizes of Cedar are also very limited, resulting in joiners in having to use uneconomical sizes and thus increasing their costs of manufacture. Covid 19 with the latest Omicron variant is going to bring ongoing challenges and fi nancial pressures to many businesses in 2022, with staff absentees due to self-isolation of staff and the potential of having your business closed down for a period of time. It is looking promising that Auckland / Northland will fi nally get to have a meeting in February under the new traffi c light system, after numerous cancellations in 2021. The annual fi shing trip is also going ahead in February which we are all looking forward to. - Rob Pickup
CANTERBURY
The Canterbury region is facing extremely high demands for new builds and renovations. This is the highest demand our region has ever experienced. Most joinery fi rms are now looking for more experienced staff to keep up with demand. Unfortunately, our bi-annual golf tournament has had to be postponed due to the Omicron outbreak. We felt that it was in the best interest to keep our industry safe by holding this event later this year. This is always a great day out and it’s good to catch up with everyone in the industry. Last week’s Canterbury Master Joiners meeting was held by Zoom as once again we were trying to keep everyone safe from Omicron. There was some very good discussions on how we are all handling health and safety in our work places. We talked about social distancing in our lunchrooms and making your tea or coffee and sitting outside while the weather is nice. And the need for delivery truck drivers staying in their trucks while being unloaded. Client meetings have also changed with many now only by appointments and sales reps needing to ring or text for an appointment instead of just calling in. This all to protect ourselves, our families and our employees. We are keeping our fi ngers crossed that we might be able to hold our annual Canterbury Master Joiner Awards on April 29th. Members are getting photos ready for their award boards and looking forward to a great social evening. On the farm, it’s been really wet, but the warm summer has contributed to lots of grass growth with less irrigation, which is always a good saving. The calves and heifers are growing really well. The cost of everything is going through the roof just as they are in the joinery industry. - Nathan Busch
CENTRAL
This year is already flying by! Where did January go? I haven’t had a chance to catch up with many of the Central Members since everyone has been on holiday. I am assuming like us, they hit the ground running and the relaxing holiday was soon forgotten. So far this year we have not run into any stock issues. Supply seems to be steady. We are however still trying to order two to three months in advance so that our suppliers have plenty of warning. Price increases are still being sent through on a regular basis. It is increasingly hard to quote on fi xed price tenders – especially as the build times are unknown due to hold ups on building materials. Staff who are stuck in the Immigration queue are fi nding it hard to book medicals in the smaller regions and are having to travel to the big centres to get these. Fingers crossed for the coming months when the NZ Residency Pool is due to open up again. Hopefully this will give some of our valued staff more security. I know I am looking forward to this! As a region, Central are still fi nding that training new staff is still the way to go. There is still a lack of experienced staff to be able to recruit in the region. Central Members took on nineteen apprentices last year. The goal now is to train and retain them in the area! Our Committee in Central is really trying hard to get some new social events on the calendar this year. Covid is still playing havoc with this, however we will be doing our best to push through and make sure we can all have some fun this year (following all of the rules of course). On that note – I am hoping that Conference will be able to go ahead this year in May. It will be great for all of us to come together and for me to meet some more of the members in other regions. Crossing my fi ngers and toes! - Kristine Holmes
HAWKES BAY/POVERTY BAY
Hawkes Bay Poverty Bay Master Joiners’ saw in the summer period with a busy amount of work, even with the supply issues that we were having. Wetter than normal, but still warm holiday period was experienced in the Hawkes Bay and a well-earned break had by all. Now that we are back into the swing of things the typical tidy up of jobs from pre-xmas has now seen us through into February. A busy workload for most and common words on everyone’s lips are the shortage of staff . Our last local meeting was held pre Xmas with a land yachting competition. A new experience for most but well-liked by everyone and something that we will do again. Mini golf evening scheduled for our next meeting, which is great to help encourage more people to attend. All work and no play makes for a boring Joiner. The inevitable covid cloud is almost upon us, with many companies wondering how this will impact their business. Supply issues of plasterboard resonates with a very similar lolly scramble, for what we saw of the toilet paper saga in the fi rst lock down. Will be interesting to see how this aff ects our ability to schedule jobs over the next few months. Looking forward to conference and pushing through with another exciting year. - Greg Rabbitte
NELSON / MARLBOROUGH
Workload
Work bookings are looking good / great in fact, probably 4 - 6 months in front of most. The blend of work is both new builds and renovations, plenty of it. A little bit of competition with the larger jobs in the area.
Material Supply
Material supply is what it is, planning and lead in times are certainly a lot longer than the old normal, communication with designers and clients is critical over this point.
Contracts and Finance
There doesn’t seem to be any problems or themes with payments or contracts other than normal.
Staffi ng
With the current workloads staffi ng is becoming a little more in focus (perhaps an understatement), with longer term staff retiring and some ‘jumping’ going on, staff are becoming aware of their worth, so focus needs to be kept on training and keeping the pipeline energised, as an industry. In summary staffi ng and material supply are the big issues and both require a lot of thought, planning and communication. - Phil Agnew
OTAGO SOUTHLAND
The Otago-Southland region has started this year well after a solid year in 2021. Across the region and in almost all sectors the construction pipelines are strong. Local joiners are reporting a good outlook on workloads. Labour and supply constraints remain, coupled with rising costs. On the labour side, apprentice training is looking good for the future with strong numbers locally and nationally, although it will be some time before this translates to a larger and stronger workforce for the industry. Supply chain and cost pressures remain as the most signifi cant of the short-term risks. Global supply
chains are yet to recover from their COVID interruptions. On the cost side, global demand for raw materials is driving up the price of nearly everything we touch. The ultimate insult here is that it now costs a lot more to have a lot less reliable supply chain. Let’s hope that this corrects itself quickly. For the local joiners, we have an awesome pipeline of events coming in 2022. We’ve attached each one of our meetings to some form of Factory Tour (3), Golf Day, Supplier Info Night, NKBA co-meeting, MDF Plant visit – and this is just in the fi rst half of the year! Employees, staff , and all local and regional associate members are welcome. I look forward to catching up with you all soon. - Reuben Bogue
TARANAKI
Well with the winter weather upon us, cool mornings, rain, wind and then the odd day of winter sun. It was so nice to sit in the sun and watch the Taranaki Bulls and Hawkes Bay Magpies play at picturesque Pukekura Park last Saturday. It was a rare opportunity to lose myself for a couple of hours, with no thought of the hectic week just been, or the one coming up. Taranaki is still very buoyant with most members reporting in that they have very good work-loads coming into the summer months. Times have surely changed, we now have to be really organised, making sure we can get material in time to do the jobs, or the constant worry of yet another delay. All the above seem to be very common now, having kitchens and other products sitting around on the factory fl oor waiting for an extra couple of weeks, waiting to be installed, as builders are facing delays with materials too. More time is spent checking availability of board materials and hardware requirements for each job and fi nding alternative products to replace what we can’t get in time. Staffi ng continues to be a problem too, fi nding the right people with the right attitude, to fi ll the vacancies. We are also trying to think outside the square to attract young people to the industry. We need to get into the high schools and talk to the careers advisors and put our industry on the map. There are a number of projects currently underway in Taranaki, with most trade based companies busy, even oil and gas. Don’t worry they are still drilling land-based wells, so hopefully that means we can use the gas to power our houses. Onwards and upwards into the summer months, and the warmer weather. - Bryan Frank
WAIKATO/BOP
2022 has arrived and our Waikato/ BOP Members have enjoyed a holiday period of outstanding weather and more freedom to move around our beautiful country as the Delta restrictions eased. Many of us spent time relaxing at the various lakes and beaches in our region. We are spoilt for choice here in the Waikato/BOP. I caught my fi rst Trevally in the Waihi/Bowentown harbour! Indications toward the end of last year that supply issues would continue to make doing business diffi cult into 2022 were not wrong. Building supplies, timber and gib in particular, are having a huge impact on managing workloads for our Schedulers and is requiring constant communication with our Builders and Project Managers to ensure we have work fl owing through our factories. Members are planning on it getting worse before we start to see improvements. Cost increases are putting pressure on businesses throughout the Region. Many increases are now in double digits over the past 12 month period. As lead times continue to increase with many factors out of our control, the question of how we deliver fi xed prices to our clients AND secure our gross margins will require some rethinking for many of us through this volatile period. The short term eff ects of extended lead times and material delays on cashfl ow is also concerning for the fi rst two quarters of 2022. Residential building and renovation enquiry remains strong. Big workloads are reported among our Members, with one Member booked till the end of the year. Omicron is now among us and threatens to postpone our Ken Monk Annual Fishing Trip as well as make Event planning challenging for this year. Our Members have missed many occasions to meet face-to-face in the past year and enjoy the camaraderie we are used to. This is an important part of our Membership experience and we hope to be able to share some good times together again soon. - Cherie van der Poel and Craig Mackie
WAITAKI REGION
The Waitaki region has started the year once again very busy with many enjoying their summer break and upon returning feeling like they haven’t had a break. There are many opportunities for pricing which is putting the pressure on and making many estimators very busy, with a lot of members pushing work out into the future based on material supply and full workloads. Staffi ng is still and will continue to be an ongoing issue with a large number of factories looking for trade staff that are simply not available. Once again materials and hardware supply are proving problematic, with both fuel and subsequently freight costs escalating month on month, but generally members are working through these issues with alternatives or securing product early. Constant price increasers have made pricing extremely difficult with product quotes being valid for very short time frames and there making it hard to keep valid pricing for more than a month. All our members indicate that clients are generally paying on time with the odd straggler requiring a bit of prompting. The positive in this side of this discussion is that people are happily securing future work with deposits in advance making it easier for members to secure goods in a timely fashion and having confi rmed work to put into their planners or programs early to be able to manage. In general, the Waitaki area seems to be moving forward well with most, if not all, members having a full workbook from mid to late 2022. It is also noted with some concern that the distinct possibility of staff absenteeism will need to be managed carefully as the onset of Omicron in the South is realistically only a matter of time, however the network that Waitaki has developed has been both helpful and encouraging with discussions at meetings being positive and helpful for those members with concerns. - Gary Firman
WELLINGTON
I learnt a few things last year: 1. Organisation is Key 2. Kiwis are impatient (me included) 3. You can never have enough stock 4. There is such a thing as “too much work” 5. How to say NO..... nah that’s a lie but I’m working on it
Let’s face it, we are all talking about the same stuff . It’s not only a problem for us, but for the industry as a whole. Even a local independent Joinery Installer can feel the rising pressure in the industry They say: “Supply issues are on the rise and will continue for the foreseeable future. I ordered 3 items from one supplier coming out of 3 diff erent warehouses around the world. Products are taking longer to arrive and ETAs are changing all the time. Went into a general building supply store the other day. Wanted to get some timber. There was plenty of stock in front of me. Got told I couldn’t have any because it’s all pre-sold. The prices will go up and lead times will rise due to global freight issues. I’m stocking up on my stock and will continue to do so.” ... Some hard facts there and it’s happening everywhere ... A lot of local members are getting called from outside the Wellington Region, asking if we can do any work ... Ahhhh No ... Who has the time? At the moment, it’s not about price, it’s more about time frames. Stressful times!! - Grant And Ulli

T-Connect
for the best connections
Table manufacturers are looking for a fl exible and simple solution for table connections. Until now, joining and separating tables has involved considerable eff ort: With conventional table connectors, special tools are often required, assembly is time-consuming, awkward and only possible in a stooped posture or by turning the tables over. From now on, this is quick and easy: with QuickClick "T-Connect", a visually and technically convincing new development from Wagner. For this, the innovation was nominated by the jury of the "German Design Council" for the "German Design Award 2022".
QuickClick "T-Connect" is the user-friendly connection for e.g. conference, restaurant and bistro tables. By simply pushing the table tops together, its innovative "Easy handling" click system ensures a quick and secure connection. It's that simple: Two "T-Connect" base parts each made of high-quality plastic are permanently screwed under the opposing tops of two tables. A "tongue" serves as the connecting part, which joins the two tables fi rmly and securely, without special tools and simply with a "click". By briefl y lifting one table, the connection is released in a matter of seconds. The design of the "T-Connect" is reduced to the essentials: With an overall height of only approx. 9 mm and dimensions of 30 x 69 mm per base part, the innovative table connector remains almost invisible and integrates into the design of a wide variety of table models without visual dominance.
It’s the perfect design & machining software for people producing:
