4 yearly review of modern awards – Award stage
(AM2014/1 and others)
JUSTICE ROSS, PRESIDENT
VICE PRESIDENT HATCHER
SENIOR DEPUTY PRESIDENT ACTON
SENIOR DEPUTY PRESIDENT HAMBERGER
COMMISSIONER BISSETT MELBOURNE, 2 JUNE 2014
4 yearly review of modern awards—Award stage—Group 1 awards.
Background
[1] In the decision issued on 17 March 20141 the Full Bench stated that the first 4 yearly
review of modern awards would comprise an Initial stage, dealing with jurisdictional issues, a
Common issues stage and an Award stage. The Initial stage is complete and the Common
issues stage has commenced dealing with issues identified in relation to annual leave.
Directions in relation to the annual leave common issue were issued on 15 April 2014.
[2] The Award stage will deal with the review of award specific issues in the 122 modern
awards. The modern awards have been divided into four groups and proceedings in relation to
the first group of awards commenced with an initial conference on 13 May 2014.
[3] A Draft Guide to the Award Stage was published on the Fair Work Commission’s (the
Commission) website outlining the process that the Commission intends to follow in the
Award stage. A draft exemplar award prepared by staff of the Commission based on the
Security Services Industry Award 20102 (the Security Award) was published at the same time
as the draft guide. This draft exemplar award does not seek to amend any entitlements under
the Security Award, but has been prepared to address some of the structural issues identified
in modern awards and is intended to make modern awards simpler and easier to understand.
[4] Parties were invited to provide comments on the Draft Guide to the Award Stage and
on the format and content of the draft exemplar award. These documents will be published in
final form by Friday, 13 June 2014.
[5] In order to reduce the length and number of consultations to be attended by parties
during the Award stage, the awards within each group will be broken down into subgroups.

Subgroups for Group 1 awards are set out in the notice of listing issued on 9 May 2014 for the
13 May 2014 conference.
[6] A number of written outlines of submissions were received by the Commission in
advance of the 13 May 2014 conference. Further submissions were made orally at the
conference. Written submissions received since the conference have been published on the
Commission’s website.
[7] This statement outlines the next phase of the Award stage for Group 1 awards.
Next steps
[8] Subject to the specific issues addressed below, the Full Bench intends to proceed by
referring individual awards to single Members to convene a conference (or conferences).
[9] The Member will be required to identify the variations sought and the extent of any
agreement in relation to those variations. The Member will consult with interested parties
about appropriate directions to address any unresolved issues, and will report back to the Full
Bench within the timeline set out at Attachment A. If issues cannot be resolved, the awards
may be referred to a Full Bench for hearing.
[10] The allocations to individual Members are set out in Attachment B. In allocating the
awards we have had regard to the way awards were allocated during the 2 year review of
modern awards undertaken under Item 6 of Schedule 5 of the Fair Work (Transitional
Provisions and Consequential Amendments Act 2009 (the Transitional Review).
[11] Attachment B also sets out an award by award analysis identifying interested parties
and the issues raised to date. All of the written and oral submissions referred to in
Attachment B can be accessed on the Award stage page or on individual award pages
accessible via the index of awards under review of the Commission’s website. The interested
parties in Attachment B are those that have provided submissions or comment to date and do
not represent a concluded list. Any other interested parties may make submissions to the
Commission during the Award stage. The summary of issues at Attachment B also includes
the suggestions made by the Fair Work Ombudsman (FWO) in their research papers.
Specific issues
[12] In its submission dated 9 May 2014 at paragraph 2(b), Ai Group raised two issues
relating to award flexibility: ‘make up time’ and ‘time off in lieu of overtime’. These matters
fall within the scope of the award flexibility/facilitative provisions common issues to be
determined at the hearing of this common issue. These matters can also be raised at the further
common issues conference in October 2014.
[13] In its submission dated 9 May 2014, the Communications, Electrical, Electronic,
Energy, Information, Postal, Plumbing and Allied Services Union of Australia (CEPU)
foreshadowed an application to include an electrician’s licence allowance in the
Manufacturing and Associated Industries and Occupations Award 20103 (the Manufacturing
Award) (Award Group 1) and the Electrical Power Industry Award 20104 (the Electrical
Power Award) (Award Group 3). This allowance is currently contained in the Electrical,
Electronic and Communications Contracting Award 20105 (Electrical Contracting Award)
(Award Group 4) and the Building and Construction General On-Site Award 20106 (On-site

Award) (Award Group 4). The Full Bench proposes to deal with this application in both
awards (the Manufacturing Award and the Electrical Power Award) together during Group 3
of the Award stage. The application also sought to vary the licence allowance in the Electrical
Contracting Award. This will be dealt with separately during Group 4. We note that the
CEPU reserves their position in relation the specific details of the variations sought.
[14] During the 13 May 2014 conference, the Traffic Management Association of Australia
foreshadowed an application to make a new modern award to cover traffic controllers
employed in the traffic management industry. This application would also affect the Asphalt
Industry Award 20107, the On-site Award and the Security Services Industry Award 2010. At
the 13 May conference the Construction, Forestry, Mining and Energy Union, The Australian
Workers’ Union, the Australian Security Industry Association Ltd and United Voice indicated
that they would oppose such application. This application will be referred to a Full Bench of
the Commission, comprising Senior Deputy President Watson, Deputy President Asbury and
Commissioner Cambridge, for determination.
[15] The ACTU made an application seeking to vary non-wage apprentice conditions in
37 awards (12 of which are listed in Award Group 1) following the outcome of the
apprenticeship Full Bench proceedings in the Transitional Review.
[16] To ensure that no party is disadvantaged by the scheduling of their awards in Award
Groups 2—4, consideration of this issue in all affected awards will be the subject of an initial
conference before Commissioner Roe, with a report back to the apprenticeship Full Bench
(Justice Boulton, Senior Deputy President Harrison and Commissioner Roe). The ACTU’s
application seeks to vary the awards listed in Attachment C. The balance of any variations
sought in relation to the 12 Group 1 awards will be listed for conference before a single
Member of the Commission as set out in paragraph [8] above.
Conclusion
[17] The Commission’s website will continue to be extensively used throughout the
Review. Parties who have not already done so are encouraged to subscribe to the award
matters notification service to be kept informed of the progress of this Review.
