Private Hospitals, Aged Care and Disability Services Industry (Training) (State) Award

 

INDUSTRIAL RELATIONS COMMISSION OF NEW SOUTH WALES

 

Application by Health Services Union, Industrial Organisation of Employees.

 

(No. IRC 2184 of 2008)

 

Before Commissioner Murphy

4 December 2008

 

VARIATION

 

1.        Delete paragraph (x) of subclause (b) of clause 6, Employment Conditions, of the award published 2 June 2000 (315 I.G. 1404) and insert in lieu thereof the following:

 

(x)      Minimum and maximum hours of work for part-time employees specified in the Parent Award shall apply to part-time Trainees also.

 

Example of the calculation for the Wage Rate for a Part-Time Traineeship

 

A school student commences a Traineeship in Year 11.  The ordinary hours of work in the Parent Award

are 38.  The Training Contract specifies two years (24 months) as the length of the Traineeship.

 

"Average weekly training time" is therefore 7.6 x 12/24 = 3.8 hours.

 

"Trainee hours" totals 15 hours; these are made up of 11 hours work which is worked over 2 days of the

week plus 1-1/2 hours on the job training plus 2-1/2 hours off the job approved training at school and at

TAFE.

 

So the wage rate in Year 11 is:

 

$246  x

15 - 3.8

=  $90.63 plus any applicable penalty rates under the Parent Award.

 

30.4

 

 

The wage rate varies when the student completes Year 11 and passes the anniversary date of 1 January the

following year to begin Year 12 and/or if "Trainee hours" changes.

 

2.        Delete subclause (e) of Clause 7, Wages and insert in lieu thereof the following:

 

(e)      The rates of pay in this award include the adjustments payable under the State Wage Case 2008.  These adjustments may be offset against:

 

(a)      any equivalent over-award payments; and/or

 

(b)      award wage increases since 29 May 1991 other than safety net State Wage Case and minimum rates adjustments.

 

3.        Delete Part B, Monetary Rates and insert in lieu thereof the following:
