T.2074 of 1989

IN THE MATTER OF AN APPLICATION REFERRED BY THE SECRETARY FOR LABOUR PURSUANT TO SECTION 13(2) OF THE LONG SERVICE LEAVE ACT 1976, IN RELATION TO A DISPUTE BETWEEN MRS S J GALL AND SALLON INVESTMENTS PTY LTD (TRADING AS HOBART TOWER MOTEL)

RE: PAYMENT FOR ACCRUED LONG SERVICE LEAVE

PRESIDENT

5 OCTOBER 1989

REASONS FOR DECISION

APPEARANCES:

For the Federated Liquor and Allied Industries Employees' Union of Australia, Tasmanian Branch	- Ms. C. Huxtable
For the Hobart Tower Motel	- Mr. K Pelham with Mr. E. Mann (Acting as Agent)
For the Department of Labour and Industry	- Mr. L. Smythe

DATE AND PLACE OF HEARING:

4.10.89 Hobart

This application, having been referred by the Secretary for Labour pursuant to Section 13(2) of the Long Service Leave Act 1976, came before the Commission for hearing on 4 October 1989.

The matter to be resolved concerned the alleged entitlement of an ex employee of the Hobart Tower Motel (Sallon Investments Pty. Ltd.) to payment for pro rata long service leave.

After having heard evidence and submissions from the parties, the participants were adjourned into private conference. Subsequently the Commission was informed that the parties had been able to come to an amicable agreement resulting in settlement of the dispute.

In the event I applaud the parties for having themselves resolved what was a most sensitive issue. I indicate now that as it appears the dispute has come to an end, the Commission will proceed no further in the matter at this time.

However, in the unlikely event the terms of settlement are not honoured, either party will be at liberty to again approach the Commission for an early resumption. For that reason I will not determine that these proceedings are now concluded. The matter is therefore adjourned sine die.

L.A. Koerbin
