DEPUTY PRESIDENT BOYCE	SYDNEY, 7 MAY 2020

Application for approval of the Transdev Sydney Light Rail Operations Enterprise Agreement 2019.

[1] An application has been made for approval of an enterprise agreement to be known as the Transdev Sydney Light Rail Operations Enterprise Agreement 2019 (Agreement). The application was made pursuant to s.185 of the Fair Work Act 2009 (Act). It has been made by Transdev Sydney Pty Ltd (Employer). The Agreement is a single enterprise agreement.

[2] The Employer provided written undertakings to the Fair Work Commission on 1 May 2020. Those undertakings are attached at Annexure A to this decision and become terms of the Agreement. I am satisfied that the undertakings will not cause financial detriment to any employee covered by the Agreement (as compared to the relevant provisions of the Passenger Vehicle Transportation Award 2010 Award 2010), and that the undertakings will not result in substantial changes to the Agreement.

[3] Subject to the undertakings referred to above, I am satisfied that each of the requirements of ss.186, 187, 188 and 190 of the Act, as are relevant to this application for approval, have been met.

[4] I am satisfied the more beneficial entitlements of the NES will prevail where there is an inconsistency between the Agreement and the NES.

[5] The Australian Rail Tram and Bus Industry Union, being a bargaining representative for the Agreement, has given notice under s.183 of the Act that it wants to be covered by the Agreement. In accordance with s.201(2) of the Act, I note that the Agreement covers this organisation.
