COMMISSIONER RYAN MELBOURNE, 9 JULY 2013

Proposed protected action ballot by employees of Integrated Machinery Pty Ltd.

[1] This is an application for a protected action ballot of members of “Automotive, Food, Metals, Engineering, Printing and Kindred Industries Union” known as the Australian Manufacturing Workers’ Union (AMWU) employed by Integrated Machinery Pty Ltd Limited (Integrated Machinery).

[2] On 5 July 2013 Integrated Machinery advised my Chambers by email that it does not oppose the application and on 7 July 2013 advised by email that it believes that the AMWU is genuinely trying to reach an agreement with the company.

[3] In the circumstances I have decided to determine the matter on the papers without holding a hearing.

[4] I am satisfied that the requirements in s.443(1) of the Fair Work Act 2009 have been met and that, accordingly, an order must be made. An order based on the draft order provided by the AMWU has issued in conjunction with this decision.
