Application for approval of the Nanyima Aged Care Nurses Enterprise Agreement 2020.

[1] An application has been made for the approval of an enterprise agreement known as the Nanyima Aged Care Nurses Enterprise Agreement 2020 (the Agreement). The application was made pursuant to s.185 of the Fair Work Act 2009 (the Act). The Agreement is a single enterprise agreement.

[2] The Agreement does not cover all of the employees of Nanyima Aged Care Inc, however, taking into account the factors in s.186(3) and s.186(3A) I am satisfied that the group of employees was fairly chosen.

[3] On the basis of the material contained in the application and accompanying statutory declaration, I am satisfied that each of the requirements of ss.186, 187 and 188 as are relevant to this application for approval have been met.

[4] The Australian Nursing and Midwifery Federation (ANMF), being a bargaining representative for the Agreement, has given notice under s.183 of the Act that it wants the Agreement to cover it. In accordance with s.201(2) and based on the statutory declaration provided, I note that the Agreement covers the ANMF.

[5] The Agreement is approved and, in accordance with s.54, will operate from 20 October 2020. The nominal expiry date of the Agreement is 30 June 2023.
