Application for approval of the Symbion Pty Ltd (Victoria) & National Union of Workers

Enterprise Agreement 2015.

[1]        An application has been made for approval of an enterprise agreement known as the

Symbion Pty Ltd (Victoria) & National Union of Workers Enterprise Agreement 2015 (the

Agreement). The application was made pursuant to s.185 of the Fair Work Act 2009 (the Act).

It has been made by Symbion Pty Ltd. The Agreement is a single enterprise agreement.

[2]        I am satisfied that each of the requirements of ss.186, 187 and 188 as are relevant to

this application for approval have been met. The Agreement does not cover all of the

employees of the employer, however, taking into account the factors in Section 186(3) and

(3A) I am satisfied that the group of employees was fairly chosen.

[3]        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.
