Subject: Official Information request - Uniform

Dear Department of Conservation,

I noted on your website: "https://www.doc.govt.nz/news/media-relea...

•In addition to the new uniforms for more than 1,200 rangers, temporary staff in uniformed roles will also be outfitted with new uniform items as will a high number of casual staff employed for biodiversity work and at visitor sites, particularly over the busy summer period. Many other DOC staff will also get some uniform items, such as scientists and technical advisors whose role includes some field work for which they wear a uniform. The number and range of uniform items being issued to staff members varies depending on their roles.
•The new uniform for rangers who work in the field includes fleece jackets, work shirts and pants, heavy-duty overalls, high-visibility safety vests, lightweight sun-protective clothing and hats.

I would like to know has the uniform been role out to the local conservation board members? Any discussion paper around the uniform will be available to the board members. Given they did have field visit and event activities.

Yours faithfully,

john luke

Dear Mr Luke,

In reply to your email below, I can advise that name badges were not
issued to Board members as part of the Department’s new uniform roll out.

 

In our region (Northern South Island) we support the Nelson Marlborough
Conservation Board and each of our Board members is issued with a name
badge with the Board’s logo on it.  The Board’s name badges are quite
different from DOC staff ones and this helps Board members be recognised
and identified when they are out and about representing the Board, as well
as at Board meetings. 

I don’t know whether other Boards issue name badges. 

 

Thank you for your query.

Kind regards,

Jo Gould
