Application for approval of the Veolia Water Operations Pty Ltd - Hunter Water Maintenance Technicians Enterprise Agreement 2022 - 2024
An application has been made for approval of an enterprise agreement known as the Veolia Water Operations Pty Ltd - Hunter Water Maintenance Technicians Enterprise Agreement 2022 - 2024 (the Agreement). The application was made pursuant to s.185 of the Fair Work Act 2009 (the Act). It has been made by Veolia Water Operations Pty Limited. The Agreement is a single enterprise agreement.
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.
Pursuant to s.205(2) of the Act, the model consultation term prescribed by the Fair Work Regulations 2009 is taken to be a term of the Agreement.
The Communications, Electrical, Electronic, Energy, Information, Postal, Plumbing and Allied Services Union of Australia and the “Automotive, Food, Metals, Engineering, Printing and Kindred Industries Union” known as the Australian Manufacturing Workers’ Union (AMWU), being bargaining representatives for the Agreement, have given notice under s.183 of the Act that they want the Agreement to cover them. In accordance with s.201(2) I note that the Agreement covers the organisations.
Clause 5 of the Agreement states that the Australian Municipal, Administrative, Clerical and Services Union (ASU) is bound by the Agreement. I do not know if the ASU was a bargaining representative for the Agreement, the Applicant did not identify it as a bargaining representative but in any case, it has not given notice under s.183 of the Act that it wants the Agreement to cover it and as such is not covered by the Agreement.
The Agreement is approved and, in accordance with s.54 of the Act, will operate from 18 February 2022. The nominal expiry date of the Agreement is 31 December 2024.
