DECISION

Fair Work Act 2009
s.437 - Application for a protected action ballot order

Communications, Electrical, Electronic, Energy, Information, Postal, Plumbing and Allied Services Union of Australia
v
Anglo Coal (Dawson Services) Pty Ltd
(B2013/1326)

SENIOR DEPUTY PRESIDENT HARRISON SYDNEY, 17 OCTOBER 2013

Proposed protected action ballot by employees of Anglo Coal (Dawson Services) Pty Ltd.

[1] This is an application made pursuant to s.437 of the Fair Work Act 2009 (the Act) by the Communications, Electrical, Electronic, Energy, Information, Postal, Plumbing and Allied Services Union of Australia (CEPU). The CEPU seeks a protected action ballot order in relation to certain employees of Anglo Coal (Dawson Services) Pty Ltd (the Employer).

[2] The Employer advised that it does not oppose the application. I have relied upon the content of a witness statement of Mr Glenn Hall, an organiser of the CEPU, which provides information about matters relevant to s.443 of the Act.

[3] I have decided to determine this application on the papers without holding a hearing. I am satisfied that each of the relevant requirements of the Act, and s.443 in particular, have been met. Accordingly, an order must be made. An order [PR543333] based on the draft order provided by the CEPU will be issued in conjunction with this decision.
