Application for approval of the AGC Installations Pty Ltd (Queens Wharf Project) Union Collective Agreement 2022
An application has been made for approval of an enterprise agreement known as the AGC Installations Pty Ltd (Queens Wharf Project) Union Collective Agreement 2022 (the Agreement). The application was made pursuant to s.185 of the Fair Work Act 2009 (the Act) by Construction, Forestry and Maritime Employees Union. The Agreement is a single enterprise agreement.
Having regard to the material contained in the application and filed in relation to it, 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. The Agreement does not cover all of the employees of the employer, however, taking into account the factors in sections 186(3) and (3A) I am satisfied that the group of employees was fairly chosen.
The Construction, Forestry, Maritime, Mining and Energy Union 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) I note that the Agreement covers the organisation. The Agreement also identified other unions as parties to the Agreement. Through chambers, I wrote to those unions to ascertain if they were in fact seeking to be covered by the Agreement. The response to that correspondence confirmed the CFMEU is the only union that have members working under the Agreement.
The Agreement was approved on 5 September 2025 and, in accordance with s.54, will operate from 12 September 2025. The nominal expiry date of the Agreement is 1 November 2026.
