COMMISSIONER SMITH | MELBOURNE, 12 JANUARY 2010 |
Application to vary/extend the pre reform agreemen .
[1] The following decision, now edited, was issued during proceedings conducted on 12 January 2009.
[2] This is an application to extend the nominal expiry date of the Hafele Australia Pty Ltd Enterprise Agreement 2003 and to vary its terms. The application was lodged on 9 December 2009. The extension date sought is 12 January 2013. I have examined the agreement and I am satisfied as to the following:
- All parties bound by the agreement genuinely agree to the extension and variation.
- None of the parties have after the introduction day, organized or engaged in or threatened to organize or engage in industrial action in relation to the other party to the agreement or applied for protected action ballot under s.451 of the Workplace Relations Act 1996 in relation to proposed industrial action.
[3] I am also satisfied that the agreement, as varied, would not result on balance in a reduction in the overall terms and conditions of employment of employees bound by the agreement.
[4] The order will operate from 13 January 2010.
