Employees hourly rate x 250% = double time and one half hourly rate
13.3.3 The penalty rate of triple time is calculated as follows:
Employees hourly rate x 300% = triple time hourly rate
13.4 Penalty rates not cumulative
Extra rates prescribed in this award are not cumulative so as to exceed a maximum of triple time.

prior to the commencement date of such
roster.
17.3 The roster shall

fortnight.
17.4 An employee
shall not be so rostered or required to work so that the end of one day’s
work and the beginning of the next day’s work occur on the same calender
day. Provided that this provision shall not apply to an employee who is working
the midnight to dawn shift or to an employee rostered to work one unbroken
stretch to 1 a.m and who commences his or her work on the same day after a break
of not less than ten
hours.
17.5 The roster may not
be altered at less than seven days notice of such alteration except in an actual
emergency or with the agreement of the employer and employee.
18. BREAKS
18.1 Meal
breaks
An employee shall be allowed a meal break of not less than
forty five minutes and not exceeding one hour at a time which is not longer than
six hours from the time of the commencement of the employee's duties on that
day. Provided that where there is agreement between the employer and employee
the meal break may be reduced to thirty
minutes.
18.2 Ten hour break between
shifts
18.2.1 If starting
work at the employees next rostered starting time would mean that the employee
did not receive a full ten hour break then
either:
18.2.2 the employee may
- without loss of pay - start work at such later time as is necessary to ensure
that he or she receives a break of at least ten hours;
or
18.2.3 the employer must pay
the employee at double time overtime rates for all work performed until the
employee has received a break of at least ten
hours.
18.2.4 Example:
George
normally works from 9 a.m. to 6 p.m. Monday to Friday. On Tuesday he works
overtime until midnight. If George’s employer wants him to start work at 9
a.m. on Wednesday then George must be paid at double time rates until he has
received a break from work of at least ten hours. Alternatively George could
start work at 10 a.m. on Wednesday and work until his normal finishing time of 6
p.m. George would then receive his normal day’s pay even though he has
worked one hour less.
19. OVERTIME
19.1 Payment
of overtime
rates
19.1.1 A full time
employee, regular part-time employee and casual employee is paid at overtime
rates for all time worked in excess of the rostered daily hours at the rate of
time and one half for the first two hours and double time
thereafter.
19.1.2 All time
worked in excess of seven hours in the case of a midnight to dawn shift
announcer will be paid at time and one
half of the employee's ordinary rate of pay for the first two hours on any one
day and at double time of the employee's ordinary rate of pay thereafter on that
day.
19.2 Calculation of overtime
rate
19.2.1 The overtime
rate of time and one half is calculated as
follows:
Employees hourly rate (weekly
wage divided by38) x 150% = time and one half hourly
rate
19.2.2 The overtime
rate of double time is calculated as
follows:
Employees hourly rate x 200%
= double time hourly
rate
19.2.3 The overtime
rate of double time and one half is calculated as
follows:
Employees hourly rate x 250%
= double time and one half hourly
rate
19.2.4 Overtime
worked on any day stands alone.
For example:
Jenny is a full-time
employee. Her ordinary rate of pay is $10 per hour. She works 2 hours overtime
on Monday and one hour overtime on Tuesday.
Jenny’s pay is
calculated
Monday
|
=(8 hours at normal rate) + (2 hours of overtime)
|
|
=(8 hours x $10) + (2 hours x $15)
|
|
=$80 + $30
|
|
=$110
|
|
|
Tuesday
|
=(8 hours at normal rate) + (1 hour of overtime)
|
|
=(8 hours x $10) + (1hour x $15)
|
|
=$80 + $15
|
|
=$95
|
You do not treat the one
hour of overtime worked on Tuesday as the third hour of overtime. It is paid at
one and a half times her normal rate of pay not twice her normal rate of pay.
This is because overtime worked on any day stands
alone.
19.3 Work in excess of ten
days
If an employee is required to work on more than ten days in
any two week period the employee shall be paid for each such day in excess of
ten days at double time.
19.4 On air
hours
All time 'on air' in excess of the consecutive hours
specified in clause 16.4 - Hours of work, shall be paid for at the rate of time
and a half of the employee's rate of pay with a minimum payment as for one
hour’s overtime.
19.5 Work on
rostered day
off
19.5.1 In the case of
an employee other than a casual being called to work on his/her rostered day off
at less than seven days notice he/she shall be paid at double time for that
day's work.
19.5.2 If an
employee is required by the employer to attend a staff or partial staff meeting
of the employer’s staff on the employee’s day off, and where such
employee agrees to attend, the employee shall be paid at the rate of double time
with a minimum payment of two
hours.
19.6 Working
late
An employee who finishes overtime work at a time when regular
means of public transport is unavailable or their normal means of transport is
unavailable and for whom a conveyance to his/her home has not been provided by
the employer shall continue to be paid overtime at the termination of the
overtime work for the time occupied in reaching his/her home.

with clause 13 - Penalty rates of this

annual leave an additional day for each holiday shall be added to the period of
leave.

leave has been granted to an employee pursuant to 21.8.1 before the right
thereto has accrued due and the employee subsequently leaves or is discharged
from the service of the employer before completing the twelve months continuous
service in respect of which the annual leave was granted the employee shall
allow credit to the employer for the monetary value of such leave taken in
advance and with respect to which there is no
entitlement.
21.9 Payment on
termination
21.9.1 If
during an employee's first twelve monthly period that employee leaves his/her
employment or the employment is terminated by the employer, the employee shall
be paid in addition to all other amounts due to him/her an amount equal to

Provisions
|
25.1 Preamble
25.1.1 Superannuation legislation
25.1.1(a) The subject of superannuation contributions is dealt with extensively by legislation including the Superannuation Guarantee (Administration) Act 1992, the Superannuation Guarantee Charge Act 1992, the Superannuation Industry (Supervision) Act 1993. The legislation, as varied from time to time, governs the superannuation rights and obligations of the parties.
25.1.1(b) Notwithstanding 25.1.1(a) above, the following provisions shall also apply.
25.2 Definitions
25.2.2 For the purpose of this clause ordinary salary refers to:
25.2.2(a) where the employee is engaged on a full-time or regular part-time basis, the employee’s usual weekly earnings, including loadings and penalty payments paid on a regular basis, but excluding any other penalties and allowances paid on an irregular basis such as overtime, travel, meals and the like, or annual leave loading;
25.2.2(b) where an employee's ordinary salary, as defined in 25.2.2(a), exceeds $100,000 per annum such employee's ordinary salary for the purposes of this clause shall be $100,000.00 per annum.
25.2.2(c) where an employee is engaged on a casual basis, the salary as negotiated for the engagement including casual loading provided under this award but excluding allowances such as overtime, travel, meals and the like.
25.3 Superannuation contributions
25.3.1 In addition to all other payments provided for under this award the employer shall subject to this clause, make a superannuation contribution on behalf of the employee of an amount equivalent to 7% of the employee’s ordinary salary or such other amount as is prescribed from time to time by the Superannuation Guarantee legislation, calculated as follows:-
25.3.1(a) Full-time and regular part-time employees: the average weekly ordinary salary for the month of December in each year. In the case of an employee commencing employment on or after January 1 in any year the contribution until the following November shall be based upon his or her ordinary time earnings in his or her first week of employment.
25.3.1(b) Casual employees: in respect of each employee engaged on a casual basis (provided that such employee has worked shifts equivalent to 20 full day's work within 13 weeks, and with effect only from the time that this requirement is met), 7% of the employee's ordinary time earnings or such other amount as is prescribed from time to time by the Superannuation Guarantee legislation, in each week of employment.
25.3.2 An employer covered by this clause, at the time of engagement, must establish whether the employee is a member of an applicable superannuation scheme. If the employee shows no proof of such membership, the employee shall be required either:
25.3.2(a) To properly complete the necessary application form to become a member of a Fund in order to be entitled to the contributions prescribed in 25.3. The employer shall provide the employee with appropriate explanatory material.
25.3.2(b) Where a contribution is made as prescribed in 25.3, the employer shall forward to the relevant fund administrator the contribution, the name of the employee on whose behalf the contribution is made, and the Superannuation Fund number of the employee or the completed application form.
25.3.2(c) The employer shall remit contributions to the fund on a monthly basis in accordance with the procedures and subject to the requirements of the relevant fund.
25.3.2(d) Notwithstanding the election of an employee not to join a relevant Superannuation Fund where such an employee forwards to the employer a completed superannuation application form within twenty-one days of making the election, the employer shall pay the superannuation contribution as prescribed in 25.3 .
25.3.2(e) In the case of full-time and regular part-time employees, superannuation contributions remain payable pursuant to this clause notwithstanding that an employee is absent from work on approved sick leave, annual leave, long service leave, or other approved paid leave. An employer shall not be required to contribute on behalf of an employee in respect of a period when the employee is absent without pay from his or her employment.
25.3.3 The contributions payable under this clause shall be paid to one of the following funds:
25.3.3(a) Australian Retirement Fund;
25.3.3(b) Journalists Union Superannuation Trust;
25.3.3(c) Any other superannuation scheme of an employer respondent to this award, or related to an respondent, conditional upon the superannuation scheme meeting the requirements of the superannuation legislation.
25.4 Transfer between funds
25.4.1 An employee shall be entitled to transfer their interest in one fund to another fund named in 25.3.3 and to direct the payment of future contributions by the employer to that other fund.
25.4.2 The employee will not be entitled to make such an election within five years after the last notification made by the employee pursuant to this clause. The employer shall only be obliged to make such contributions to the other scheme where the employer has been advised in writing:
25.4.2(a) by the employee of such proposed change;
25.4.2(b) by the Trustee of the employee's present fund that the employee will no longer belong to that fund; and
25.4.2(c) by the Trustee of the other fund that the employee now belongs to this other fund.
25.4.3 Notwithstanding 25.4.2, an employee will be entitled to make such an election before 5 years where exceptional circumstances arise.
