TASMANIAN INDUSTRIAL COMMISSION Industrial Relations Act 1984 Australian Liquor, Hospitality and Miscellaneous Workers Union, ICE CREAM MAKERS AWARD
Wage Rates - Minimum Rates Adjustment - second increase REASONS FOR DECISION This was an application made by the Australian Liquor, Hospitality and Miscellaneous Workers Union, Tasmanian Branch (the Union) for the second Minimum Rates Adjustment (MRA) to be implemented in the Ice Cream Makers Award (the Award). The Union, in its submissions, referred to the Structural Efficiency Principle changes which were made to the Award operative from the 16th April, 1992: The implementation of the first MRA occurred at the same time: In accordance with the Principles of the Commission it had been agreed then that the second MRA would be applied (on application) six months after the first MRA started to operate. The Union produced an exhibit detailing the appropriate amendment to the Award required and sought for it to operate from the first full pay period to commence on or after 16 October, 1992. The Tasmanian Confederation of Industries ( the Confederation) confirmed its agreement to the amendment sought and the operative date. The Confederation said that the Award only applied to one employer, the Peters Ice Cream Company, and the MRA sought was consistent with what had been agreed between the parties earlier in the year. I am satisfied that the application is in accordance with the Commission's current Guidelines and it is not against the public interest. The application is granted and the amendment to the Award will operate from the first pay period to commence on or after 16 October, 1992 as requested. An order is attached.
