Logger Mag - June 2026

Want to listen to our FICA Logger Mag updates instead of reading them? Here's how:

1. Update your settings (phones / tablets) or install this free audio reader extension (desktop / laptop):

a. iPhone: To use the built-in text-to-speech feature on your iPhone, go to:

Settings > Accessibility > Spoken Content and enable "Speak Selection" or "Speak Screen" to have the iPhone read selected text or the entire screen aloud, respectively.

b. Samsung: To activate and customize the text-to-speech "Read Aloud" feature on your Samsung Galaxy phone or tablet, navigate to Settings > Accessibility > Text-to-speech output, where you can choose your preferred engine, language, speech rate, and pitch.

c. Computer: Install Read Aloud: A Text to Speech Voice Reader. Then the orange megaphone icon should appear in the top right of your web browser - you can use the controls to play / stop / skip as needed. 

2. If on your iPhone, select / highlight the text below and click 'speak' to listen. If you're on your  computer, press the orange megaphone icon (normally in the top right of your web browser).

Financial Health Survey

To better understand pressure points and strengthen evidence based advocacy, FICA has put out a confidential forestry contractor financial health survey.

Responses will help FICA understand the financial health and resilience of forestry contractors across New Zealand and results will only be reported in aggregate.
