Application for approval of the Victoria Carpets Dandenong CFMEU – Manufacturing Division Enterprise Agreement 2024
An application has been made for approval of an enterprise agreement known as the Victoria Carpets Dandenong CFMEU – Manufacturing Division Enterprise Agreement 2024 (the Agreement). The application was made pursuant to s.185 of the Fair Work Act 2009 (the Act). It has been made by The Victoria Carpet Company Pty Ltd T/A Victoria Carpets (Victoria Carpets). The Agreement is a single enterprise agreement.
In response to a query I raised, Victoria Carpets confirmed that it is intended that the Textile, Clothing, Footwear and Associated Industries Modern Award 2020 (the Award) form part of the Agreement, its provisions operating as terms of the Agreement. A copy of the Award was made available to employees during the period prior to their having been asked to approve the Agreement. An Attachment to the Agreement – “Attachment A” - is intended to include the text of the Award, however this appears to have been omitted. Pursuant to s 218A of the Act, I will vary the Agreement to include the text of the Award at Attachment A, after having sought the views of the bargaining representatives about this proposition, who agreed with it.
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.
The Construction, Forestry and Maritime Employees Union - Manufacturing Division Union (CFMEU) 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 CFMEU.
The Agreement is approved and, in accordance with s.54 of the Act, will operate 7 days after approval.
