Application for approval of the Nass Labour Pty. Limited / CFMEU Collective Agreement

2016-2017.

[1]        An application has been made for approval of an enterprise agreement known as the

Nass Labour Pty. Limited / CFMEU Collective Agreement 2016-2017 (the Agreement). The

application was made pursuant to s.185 of the Fair Work Act 2009 (the Act). It has been made

by the Construction, Forestry, Mining and Energy Union. The Agreement is a single

enterprise agreement.

[2]        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 Section 186(3) and

(3A) I am satisfied that the group of employees was fairly chosen.

[3]        Pursuant to s.205(2) of the Act, the model consultation term prescribed by the Fair

Work Regulations 2009 is taken to be a term of the Agreement.

[4]        The Construction, Forestry, 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.
