DEPUTY PRESIDENT GOOLEY | MELBOURNE, 20 OCTOBER 2014 |
Application for approval of the Pfizer (Perth) and National Union of Workers Pharmaceutical Operator Agreement 2013.
[1] An application has been made for approval of an enterprise agreement known as the Pfizer (Perth) and National Union of Workers Pharmaceutical Operator Agreement 2013 (the Agreement). The application was made pursuant to s.185 of the Fair Work Act 2009 (the Act). It has been made by Pfizer Perth Pty Ltd. The agreement is a single enterprise agreement.
[2] The Applicant has provided written undertakings. A copy of the undertakings is attached in Annexure A. I am satisfied that the undertakings will not cause financial detriment to any employee covered by the Agreement and that the undertakings will not result in substantial changes to the Agreement.
[3] Subject to the undertakings referred to above, I am satisfied that each of the requirements of ss.186, 187, 188 and 190 as are relevant to this application for approval have been met.
[4] The application was not lodged within 14 days after the agreement was made. Pursuant to s.185(3)(b), in all the circumstances I consider it fair to extend the time for making the application to the date it was actually made.
[5] The National Union of Workers, 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.
