SHANNON POWER MANAGEMENT ENTERPRISE AGREEMENT 2012

Building, metal and civil construction industries
DEPUTY PRESIDENT MCCARTHY	PERTH, 20 MARCH 2013

Application for approval of the Shannon Power Management Enterprise Agreement 2012.

[1] An application has been made for approval of an enterprise agreement known as the Shannon Power Management Enterprise Agreement 2012 (the Agreement). The application was made pursuant to s.185 of the Fair Work Act 2009 (the Act). The Agreement is a single-enterprise agreement.

[2] I am satisfied that each of the requirements of ss.186, 187 and 188 of the Act as are relevant to this application for approval have been met.

[3] I had some concerns regarding clause 20 in the Agreement. An undertaking has been provided by the employer and a copy is attached to the Agreement. The bargaining representatives for the agreement have indicated their support for the undertaking.

[4] The application was not lodged within 14 days after the Agreement was made. Pursuant to s.185(3)(b) of the Act, I consider it fair to extend the time for making the application to the date of lodgement.

[5] The Agreement is approved and, in accordance with s.54 of the Act, will operate from seven days from the date of this decision. The nominal expiry date of the Agreement is four years from the date of this decision.
