VARIATION
1. Insert after subclause
7.1 of clause 7, Contract of Employment of the award published 18 August 2000
(317 I.G. 1030) the following new subclause, and renumber existing clauses
accordingly.
7.2 A casual
employee is one engaged and paid as such.
A casual employee shall be paid for each hour worked or part thereof at
the appropriate hourly rate for the employee's classification plus a loading of
20%. This loading includes compensation
for benefits such as annual leave, personal leave, sick leave and public
holidays.
To be clear, this loading is inclusive of the 1/12th
annual leave payment arising under the Annual Holidays Act 1944 (NSW)
which would otherwise be payable to casual employees.
For the purposes of this clause, the appropriate hourly
rate shall be calculated by dividing the annual salary prescribed by this award
for the employee's classification, as set out in Part B, Monetary Rates of this
award, by 1979.8 hours.
Example:
The loaded casual hourly rate for Level 1A employee is $21.48
per hour, calculated as follows:
$35,490/1979.8 hours = 17.90
$17.90 x 1.2 = $21.48
2. This order
shall take effect from the beginning of the first full pay period to commence
on or after 16 March 2006.
