Application for approval of the Mater Health Services Senior Medical Officers’ Enterprise Agreement 2015.

[1] An application has been made for approval of an enterprise agreement known as the Mater Health Services Senior Medical Officers' Enterprise Agreement 2015 (the Agreement). The application was made pursuant to s.185 of the Fair Work Act 2009 (the Act). It has been made by Mater Misericordiae Limited T/A Mater Hospital Brisbane and Mater Misericordiae Mothers' Hospitals. 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] The Australian Salaried Medical Officers Federation and Together Queensland, Industrial Union of Employees being bargaining representatives for the Agreement, have given notice under s.183 of the Act that they want the Agreement to cover them. In accordance with s.201(2) I note that the Agreement covers the organisations.
