Application for approval of the Lemnos Foods Pty Ltd and United Workers Union Enterprise Agreement 2025-2028
An application has been made for approval of an enterprise agreement known as the Lemnos Foods Pty Ltd and United Workers Union Enterprise Agreement 2025-2028 (the Agreement). The application was made pursuant to s.185 of the Fair Work Act 2009 (the Act). It has been made by Lemnos Foods Pty Ltd. The Agreement is a single enterprise agreement.
I note that the Notice of Employee Representational Rights (NERR) was not provided in the correct form. The NERR contained a very minor difference in the title for the Agreement to the one noted above. However, I am satisfied that this constitutes a minor procedural or technical error, that the employees were not likely to have been disadvantaged by the error, and the error may be disregarded pursuant to s.188(5) of the Act.
I am satisfied that each of the requirements of ss.186, 187, 188, 193 and 193A 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 ss.186(3) and (3A) I am satisfied that the group of employees was fairly chosen.
The United Workers’ 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 is approved and in accordance with s.54, will operate from 24 September 2025. The nominal expiry date of the Agreement is 30 June 2028.
