Application for approval of the Australian Reinforcing Company Tasmanian Enterprise Agreement 2013.

[1] An application has been made for approval of an enterprise agreement known as the Australian Reinforcing Company Tasmanian Enterprise Agreement 2013 (the Agreement). The application was made pursuant to s.185 of the Fair Work Act 2009 (the Act) and was made by SSX Services Pty Limited. The agreement is a single-enterprise agreement.

[2] I am satisfied that each of the requirements of ss186, 187 and 188 as are relevant to this application for approval have been met.

[3] On 20 May 2013 the applicant advised by email that an error had been made in the rates of pay for classification 5(a) appearing in appendix A to the Agreement. The correct rates are: $1122.38 for Launceston; $1145.15 for Hobart and $1150.05 for Burnie. The applicant advised that employees at this classification are being paid these rates and that the incorrect rates in appendix A was due to an administrative error. Pursuant to s.586 of the Act, I permit this correction to appendix A of the Agreement. The corrected version of the Agreement is the version now approved and attached to this decision.
