Logie said domestic violence is an issue that isn't strictly confined to the home, with abuse trickling into the workplace, undermining their safety and productivity.
"All too often, victims have to leave their jobs because of this, and it makes them more reliant on their abusive partner, and means their employer has to recruit and train up new staff. It's a lose-lose situation," Logie said.
"Today, we will become the first country in the world to provide these protections as universal entitlements. Today we stand for a future free of domestic violence."
New Zealand has one of the highest rates of domestic violence in the world, with police attending 105,000 family violence callouts a year. 80 percent of incidents, however, go unreported.
"It can make an enormous difference for the very small number of victims who need to take advantage of the provision," Holly Carrington, from domestic violence charity Shine, told Newshub.
"What this bill does is ensures a basic level of support from all employers across the board, which is just fantastic."

New Zealand's Equal Employment Opportunities and Women’s Rights Commissioner, Jackie Blue, said in a statement online that a workplace can often be the only place a victim feels safe.
"An employer with a family violence policy and practices, such as paid leave, can provide a forward path for family violence victims to gain confidence and break the abusive cycle," she said.
The new law is set to come into place in April 2019.
