Introduction
On 24 June 2021, Menulog applied to us to create a new modern award that would cover ‘on demand delivery services’ (AM2021/72).
The application was made under section 158 of the Fair Work Act 2009.
In January 2022, the Commission decided that employers and employees working in on demand delivery services were part of the ‘road transport and distribution industry’ covered by Road Transport and Distribution Award 2020 (see [2022] FWCFB 5).
Following the passage of the Fair Work Legislation (Closing Loopholes No. 2) Act 2024, the matter has been referred to the Road Transport Advisory Group to conduct a consultation process and provide advice to the Commission.
Please direct any submissions or enquiries to awards@fwc.gov.au.
