Application for approval of the Riverina Plaster Works Pty Ltd Enterprise Agreement 2023

  1. Riverina Plaster Works Pty Ltd applies under s 185 of the Fair Work Act 2009 (the Act) for the approval of a single enterprise agreement known as the Riverina Plaster Works Pty Ltd Enterprise Agreement 2023 (Agreement).

  1. The employer 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. The undertakings are taken to be a term of the Agreement.

  1. 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.

  1. Clauses 39.1(c), (e) and (i) (Termination of employment) are likely to be inconsistent with the National Employment Standards (NES). However, noting clause 3.1 of the Agreement, I am satisfied the more beneficial entitlements of the NES will prevail where there is an inconsistency between the Agreement and the NES.

  1. The Agreement is approved and, in accordance with s 54 of the Act, will operate from 4 March 2024. The nominal expiry date of the Agreement is 4 March 2027.
