COMMISSIONER CARGILL	SYDNEY, 12 MARCH 2014

Application for approval of the Hernes Linehaul Enterprise Agreement 2014.

[1] An application has been made for approval of an enterprise agreement known as the Hernes Linehaul Enterprise Agreement 2014 (the Agreement). The application was made pursuant to s.185 of the Fair Work Act 2009 (the Act) by Hernes Linehaul Pty Ltd. The agreement is a single-enterprise agreement.

[2] The Agreement was not lodged within 14 days after it was made. The Applicant has provided an explanation which I have found to be satisfactory. Pursuant to s.185(3)(b) I consider it fair to extend the time for making this application to 4 March 2014.

[3] The Agreement does contain a consultation term however, it is not a consultation term that fully complies with s205 of the Act. Consequently the model consultation term is taken to be a term of the Agreement.

[4] I am satisfied that each of the requirements of ss186, 187 and 188 as are relevant to this application for approval have been met.

[5] The Agreement is approved and, in accordance with s.54, will operate from 19 March 2014. The nominal expiry date is four years from the date of approval.
