DECISION

Fair Work Act 2009
s.248—Single interest employer authorisation

6 x 3 Company Pty Ltd T/A 7-Eleven and others
(B2015/1255)

COMMISSIONER GREGORY MELBOURNE, 16 SEPTEMBER 2015

Regarding proposed Second Choice Enterprise Agreement 2015.

[1] 6 x 3 Company Pty Ltd T/A7-Eleven and others have made application for a Single Interest Employer Authorisation under s.248 of the Fair Work Act 2009 (Cth) (the Act) in relation to the proposed Enterprise Agreement to be known as the Second Choice Enterprise Agreement 2015.

[2] The application specifies the Employers that will be covered by the proposed Agreement, the group of employees who would be covered by the Agreement, and the person nominated by the Employers to make application if the authorisation is made. That person is Pawan Narang, Director of The Palate-Ville Pty Ltd. Mr Narang has also provided a Statutory Declaration in support of the application.

[3] Having considered the terms of the application and the attached Statutory Declaration I am satisfied the Employers intended to be covered by the proposed Agreement have agreed to bargain together, and that no person has coerced or threaten to coerce any of those Employers to agree to bargain in this way.

[4] I am also satisfied the Employers are carrying on similar business activities under the same franchise and are all franchisees of the same franchisor.

[5] The Act provides that I must, in such circumstances, make a Single Interest Employer Authorisation in relation to the proposed Enterprise Agreement. I accordingly make the authorisation in relation to the proposed Second Choice Enterprise Agreement 2015. It will come into operation from the date of this decision. An order containing the authorisation is issued in conjunction with this Decision.
