Application for approval of the RZ Net Pty Ltd Enterprise Agreement 2022

  1. An application has been made for approval of an enterprise agreement known as the RZ Net Pty Ltd Enterprise Agreement 2022 (the 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. Pursuant to s.202(4) of the Act, the model flexibility term prescribed by the Fair Work Regulations 2009 is taken to be a term of the Agreement.

  1. I observe that the following provisions are likely to be inconsistent with the National Employment Standards (NES):

However, noting clause 2 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.
