Tasmanian Branch
(T.4362 of 1993)

INSURANCE AWARD

 

COMMISSIONER P A IMLACH

12 May 1993

Wage rates - minimum rates adjustment - fourth increase

REASONS FOR DECISION

This was an application made by the Federated Clerks Union of Australia, Tasmanian Branch (the Union) for the fourth Minimum Rates Adjustment (MRA) to be implemented in the Insurance Award (the Award).

The Union advised that, in accordance with the Principles of the Commission, it had been agreed for the Award (in matter T3522 of 1991) that each additional MRA would be applied (on application) six months after the previous MRA. This application reflected that original agreement made under the Structural Efficiency Principle.

The Union produced a draft order 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 4 June 1993.

The Tasmanian Confederation of Industries (the Confederation) confirmed its agreement to the amendment sought and the operative date.

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 full pay period to commence on or after 4 June 1993 as requested.
