Application for approval of the RNC Enterprise Agreement 2022-2025.
An application has been made for approval of an enterprise agreement known as the RNC Enterprise Agreement 2022-2025 (Agreement). The application was made by P Mirchandani Pty Ltd T/A Royal Nut Company (Applicant) pursuant to s.185 of the Fair Work Act 2009 (Cth) (Act). The Agreement is a single enterprise agreement.
The Applicant is the employer covered by the Agreement. The name of the employer as stated in the Notice of Employee Representational Rights (NERR) is ‘Royal Nut Company Pty Ltd’. Noting that this is different from the name of the Applicant, the Commission sought submissions addressing this. The ‘Royal Nut Company’ is the trading name of the Applicant. Having considered the submissions of the Applicant, I am satisfied that, pursuant to s.188(2) of the Act, the error in the NERR regarding the employer name is a minor procedural or technical error, that it has not prevented genuine agreement and that the employees covered by the Agreement were not likely to have been disadvantaged by the error.
The Employer has provided written undertakings. A copy of the undertakings is attached at Annexure A of this decision (Undertakings). The views of each person I know is a bargaining representative for the Agreement were sought in relation to the Undertakings and no objections were raised. I am satisfied that the effect of accepting the Undertakings is not likely to:
(a)cause financial detriment to any employee covered by the Agreement; or
(b)result in substantial changes to the Agreement.
Pursuant to s.190(3) of the Act, I accept the Undertakings.
Subject to the Undertakings, and on the basis of the materials before the Commission, I am satisfied that each of the requirements of ss.186, 187, 188 and 190 of the Act as are relevant to the application for approval of the Agreement have been met.
The Agreement is approved and, in accordance with s.54 of the Act, will operate from 6 June 2022. The nominal expiry date of the Agreement is 31 March 2025.
