TASMANIAN INDUSTRIAL COMMISSION

Industrial Relations Act 1984
s.23 application to vary an award

Australian Municipal, Administrative, Clerical and Services Union
(T.4902 of 1994)

INSURANCE AWARD

Wage rates - State Wage Case December 1993 - arbitrated safety net adjustment

This was an application by the Australian Municipal, Administrative, Clerical and Services Union (the Union) for the $8 arbitrated safety net adjustment, determined by a full bench of the Commission in the State Wage decision dated 24 December 1993¹ to be implemented in the Insurance Award (the Award).

The Union produced a draft order and in seeking the increase confirmed that the restructuring process had commenced in the Award, but to date nothing had occurred with enterprise bargaining.

The Tasmanian Chamber of Commerce and Industry Limited consented to the application.

I am satisfied that the application is not against the guidelines of the Commission, nor the provisions of the Act. The Award will be amended as sought, operative from the first full pay period from the date of this decision.

An order will be issued in due course.
