The Australian Workers’ Union
v
Skilled Group Limited
(B2013/548)
COMMISSIONER RYAN | MELBOURNE, 18 JANUARY 2013 |
Proposed protected action ballot by employees of Skilled Engineering.
[1] This is an application for a protected action ballot of members of The Australian Workers’ Union (AWU) employed by Skilled Group Limited (Skilled) and working at the Impact Fertilisers Pty Ltd Derwent Park Road site.
[2] Mr Paul Borobokas, General Manager Workplace Relations for Skilled, advised my chambers by email on 17 January 2013 that the company does not oppose this application and that the AWU has been genuinely trying to reach agreement with Skilled.
[3] In the circumstances I have decided to determine the matter on the papers without holding a hearing.
[4] I am satisfied that the requirements in s.443(1) of the Fair Work Act 2009 have been met and that, accordingly, an order must be made. An order based on the draft order provided by the AWU has issued in conjunction with this decision.
