69CA: Exempt employer
or “A special type of boss who doesn't have to follow some rules about keeping workers when a business changes”
You could also call this:

“A promise that used to protect workers when their job changed, but it's not used anymore.”

This section of the law, called ‘Warranty’, used to be part of the rules about keeping your job if your work changes because of restructuring. However, it was removed from the law on 6 May 2019. This means it no longer applies, and you can’t rely on it anymore. If you want to know more about the current rules for this situation, you might need to look at other parts of the Employment Relations Act 2000.
