last completed return period under this Act.\n4A—Determination of ordinary weekly pay in certain circumstances\n\t(1)\tIf at any time it appears to the Board that a construction worker's ordinary weekly pay calculated in accordance with this Act is—\n\t(a)\texcessive; or\n\t(b)\tinsufficient,\nby reason of—\n\t(c)\tthe nature of the work performed by the construction worker at any time material to the calculation; or\n\t(d)\tthe remuneration that was payable to the construction worker in respect of any work performed by him or her at any time material to the calculation,\nthe Board may, by notice in writing to the construction worker and the construction worker's employer (if any), inform the construction worker (or his or her personal representative) and the employer that the Board proposes to determine the construction worker's ordinary weekly pay under this Act to be a different amount.\n\t(2)\tA notice under subsection (1) must specify a time within which the construction worker (or his or her representative) and the employer may make written submissions to the Board that the construction worker's ordinary weekly pay should be an amount different to the amount proposed by the Board.\n\t(3)\tIn making a determination under this section the Board must take into account any written submission received within the time specified under subsection (2) and may otherwise inform itself in such manner as it thinks fit, but except as provided by this section the Board is not required to give to any person notice of or an opportunity to answer or to be heard in relation to any matter taken into account by the Board in making the determination.\n\t(4)\tThe Board must cause notice of its determination to be served on the construction worker (or his or her personal representative) and on the construction worker's employer (if any).\n\t(5)\tThe notice must include a statement of the grounds upon which the determination has been made.\n\t(6)\tIf the Board makes a determination of a construction worker's ordinary weekly pay under this section, that determination will prevail over any amount that would otherwise constitute the construction worker's ordinary weekly pay under this Act.\n5—Application of this Act\n\t(1aa)\tSubject to this section and Schedule 5, this Act applies to a person's employment if the person is within the ambit of subsections (1), (1a) or (1b).\n\t(1)\tA person is within the ambit of this subsection if—\n\t(a)\tthe person works under a contract of service in the construction industry; and\n\t(b)\t—\n\t(i)\tan award referred to in Schedule 1 or the regulations prescribes a weekly rate of pay for work of that kind; or\n\t(ii)\tthe person works on site as a foreman and within 12 months before commencing work as a foreman the person worked in some other capacity as a construction worker under an award referred to in Schedule 1 or the regulations; and\n\t(c)\t—\n\t(i)\tthe employment involves on site work that makes up the whole, or a proportion of at least one-half, of the period of employment over—\n\t(A)\tin the case of a person employed for less than 1 month—the whole period of employment; or\n\t(B)\tin the case of a person employed for 1 month or more but less than 3 months—the first month of employment; or\n\t(C)\tin the case of a person employed for 3 months or more—any 3 month period of employment; or\n\t(ii)\tin the case of a foreman, the on site employment involves supervising other employees who work on the site,\nbut without affecting any accrued effective service entitlement, this subsection ceases to apply to the employment if the employee has not worked on site for the last three months or, in the case of a foreman, has not gone on site in the performance of his or her functions as a foreman for the last three months (disregarding any period during which the employee is absent from work as a result of an allowable absence).\n\t(1a)\tA person is within the ambit of this subsection if—\n\t(a)\tthe person works under a contract of service in the construction industry; and\n\t(b)\tan award referred to in Schedule 1A, or the regulations, prescribe a weekly rate of pay for work of that kind (subject to any limitation as to classifications referred to in that Schedule or the regulations); and\n\t(c)\tthe person's employer has registered with the Board as an employer for the purposes of this Act; and\n\t(d)\tthe person's employer and the Board have agreed that the Act should apply to the person.\n\t(1b)\tA person is within the ambit of this subsection if—\n\t(a)\tthe person has been employed as a construction worker within the ambit of subsections (1) or (1a); and\n\t(b)\tthe person is seconded to a relevant association to act as an officer or employee of the association after being granted leave without pay by an employer in the construction industry; and\n\t(c)\tthe relevant association is registered with the Board for the purposes of this provision; and\n\t(d)\tthe person is not (and does not become) a member of the governing body of the relevant association,\nbut without affecting an accrued effective service entitlement, this subsection ceases to apply to the person if the person attains an effective service entitlement of 2 600 days.\n\t(2)\tWhere this Act applies to employment by virtue of subsection (1)(c)(i)(C), it will be taken to have commenced to apply from the commencement of the three-month period referred to in that subsection.\n\t(2a)\tWhere this Act applies to employment by virtue of subsection (1b), the relevant association will be taken to be the employer of the person (as a construction worker) for the purposes of this Act.\n\t(2b)\tDespite subsection (1aa), Parts 3 and 5 do not apply to a person's employment (and consequently the person is not a construction worker for the purposes of those Parts) if the person's employer is a body corporate and the person is a director of that body corporate.\n\t(3)\tWhere—\n\t(a)\ta person carries out construction work on premises owned or occupied by his or her employer (not being premises intended for subsequent sale or lease); and\n\t(b)\tthat is the sole construction work in which the person is engaged by that employer,\nthis Act does not apply to that employment.\n\t(3a)\tSubsections (1) and (1a) do not apply in relation to a person who—\n\t(a)\tis employed in the civil construction industry as defined in the Building and Construction General On‑site Award 2010 unless the person is employed in building work that wholly or predominantly involves working on structures within the meaning of this Act; or\n\t(b)\tfalls within any class of employees excluded from the operation of that subsection by the regulations.\n\t(4)\tThis Act does not apply in relation to employment by—\n\t(a)\tthe Crown;\n\t(b)\tan agency or instrumentality of the Crown;\n\t(c)\ta council;\n\t(d)\ta prescribed employer or an employer of a prescribed class.\n\t(5)\tA regulation cannot be made for the purposes of this section except after consultation with, or on the recommendation of, the Board.\n\t(6)\tIn this section—\ndirector of a body corporate includes—\n\t(a)\ta person occupying or acting in the position of director or member of the governing body of the body corporate, by whatever name called and whether or not validly appointed to occupy or duly authorised to act in the position; and\n\t(b)\tany person in accordance with whose directions or instructions the directors or members of the governing body of the body corporate are accustomed to act;\nrelevant association means an association of employees that is able to represent the industrial interests of persons employed in the construction industry.\nPart 2—The Construction Industry Long Service Leave Board\nDivision 1—Establishment and governance\n6—The Board\n\t(1)\tThe Construction Industry Long Service Leave Board is established.\n\t(2)\tThe Board is a body corporate.\n\t(3)\tThe Board has full juristic capacity to exercise any powers that are by their nature capable of being exercised by a body corporate.\n\t(4)\tAn apparently genuine document that appears to bear the common seal of the Board and to be signed by the presiding officer and the chief executive officer of the Board, or by any two of its members, will be taken, in any legal proceedings, in the absence of proof to the contrary, to be duly executed by the Board.\n\t(5)\tThe Board is subject to direction by the Minister.\n\t(6)\tA direction given by the Minister under subsection (5) must be in writing.\n\t(7)\tThe Board must cause a direction given by the Minister to be published in its next annual report.\n7—Membership of the Board\n\t(1)\tThe Board consists of seven members, appointed by the Governor, of whom—\n\t(a)\tone (who will be the presiding officer of the Board) will be a person nominated by the Minister; and\n\t(b)\tthree will be nominated by the Minister after taking into account the recommendations of employer associations, to represent the interests of employers in the construction industry; and\n\t(c)\tthree will be nominated by the Minister after taking into account the recommendations of the United Trades and Labor Council, to represent the interests of construction workers.\n\t(2)\tThe Governor may appoint a suitable person to be a deputy of a member of the Board and that person may, in the absence of that member from the duties of office, act as a member of the Board.\n\t(3)\tA deputy of a member of the Board is to be nominated in the same way as the member.\n8—Conditions of membership\n\t(1)\tA member of the Board will be appointed for such term of office (not exceeding five years) as the Governor determines and specifies in the instrument of appointment and will, on the expiration of a term of office, be eligible for reappointment.\n\t(2)\tThe Governor may remove a member of the Board from office if the member—\n\t(a)\tbecomes mentally or physically incapable of carrying out satisfactorily the duties of office; or\n\t(b)\tis guilty of neglect of duty or dishonourable conduct; or\n\t(c)\thaving been appointed to represent the interests of employers or construction workers in the construction industry, ceases, in the opinion of the Governor, to be a suitable person to act as such a representative.\n\t(3)\tSubject to subsection (4), the office of a member of the Board becomes vacant if—\n\t(a)\tthe member dies; or\n\t(b)\tthe member's term of office expires; or\n\t(c)\tthe member resigns by written notice addressed to the Minister; or\n\t(d)\tthe member is absent without leave of the Minister from three consecutive meetings of the Board; or\n\t(e)\tthe member is removed by the Governor under subsection (2).\n\t(4)\tA member of the Board whose term of office expires may continue to act as a member until a fresh appointment is made.\n9—Fees and allowances\n\t(1)\tA member of the Board is entitled to such fees and allowances as the Governor may determine.\n\t(2)\tFees and allowances payable under subsection (1) will be paid out of the Fund.\n10—Proceedings at meetings of the Board\n\t(1)\tMeetings of the Board will be chaired by the presiding officer and, in the absence of the presiding officer, by a person chosen from amongst their own number by the members present.\n\t(2)\tSubject to subsection (3), the Board may act notwithstanding vacancies in its membership.\n\t(3)\tFour members of the Board constitute a quorum of the Board.\n\t(4)\tA decision carried by at least four members of the Board at a meeting of the Board is a decision of the Board.\n\t(5)\tEach member of the Board present at a meeting is entitled to one vote on any matter arising for decision at that meeting.\n\t(6)\tThe Board must have accurate minutes kept of its proceedings at meetings.\n\t(7)\tSubject to this Act, the business of the Board will be conducted in a manner determined by the Board.\n11—Conflict of interest under Public Sector (Honesty and Accountability) Act\nA member of the Board will not be taken to have a direct or indirect interest in a matter for the purposes of the Public Sector (Honesty and Accountability) Act 1995 by reason only of the fact that the member has an interest in a matter that is shared in common with those engaged in or associated with the construction industry generally, or a substantial section of those engaged in or associated with the construction industry.\n12—Delegation by Board\n\t(1)\tThe Board may, by instrument in writing, delegate any of its powers or functions.\n\t(2)\tA delegation under this section—\n\t(a)\tmay be made to a member of the Board or any other person engaged in the administration of this Act; and\n\t(b)\tmay be made subject to such conditions as the Board thinks fit; and\n\t(c)\tis revocable at will and does not derogate from the power of the Board to act in any matter itself.\n\t(3)\tIn any legal proceedings an apparently genuine certificate, purporting to be under the seal of the Board, containing particulars of a delegation under this section will, in the absence of proof to the contrary, be accepted as proof of the particulars.\nDivision 2—Staff and facilities\n13—Chief executive officer\n\t(1)\tThere will be a chief executive officer of the Board.\n\t(2)\tThe CEO will be engaged or appointed by the Board (on terms and conditions determined by the Board).\n\t(3)\tSubject to any decision, determination or policy of the Board, the CEO is responsible to the Board for—\n\t(a)\tmanaging the Board's business efficiently and effectively; and\n\t(b)\tsupervising the staff engaged in the work of the Board.\n\t(4)\tSubsection (3) does not derogate from the operation of section 17 of the Portable Long Service Leave Act 2024.\n13A—Staff\n\t(1)\tThe staffing arrangements for the Board will be determined by the Board.\n\t(2)\tA staffing arrangement under subsection (1) may provide for 1 or both of the following:\n\t(a)\tthe Board engaging staff as employees or contractors of the Board;\n\t(b)\twith the agreement of a public sector agency—the Board making use of the staff of the public sector agency.\n13B—Facilities\nThe Board may, by arrangement with a public sector agency, make use of the services or facilities of the public sector agency.\nPart 3—Long service leave entitlements\n14—Effective service entitlement\n\t(1)\tSubject to this Act, a construction worker's entitlement to long service leave, or payment on account of long service leave, is determined according to his or her aggregate effective service entitlement.\n\t(2)\tA person will be credited with one day of effective service—\n\t(a)\tfor each day that he or she works as a construction worker; and\n\t(b)\tfor each day of a period of allowable absence,\n(and the aggregate of those days of effective service will be the worker's aggregate effective service entitlement).\n\t(2a)\tHowever, a person cannot be credited with more than five days of effective service in any week (and accordingly cannot be credited with more than 260 days of effective service in a financial year).\n\t(3)\tWhere—\n\t(a)\ta construction worker who has an effective service entitlement of less than 2 600 days is dismissed from employment as a construction worker; and\n\t(b)\tthe Board is satisfied, after affording the former construction worker and his or her former employer an opportunity to be heard, that the construction worker was properly dismissed on the ground of serious and wilful misconduct,\nany effective service entitlement of the worker accrued in that employment is cancelled.\n\t(4)\tWhere—\n\t(a)\ta construction worker has an effective service entitlement of less than 1 820 days; and\n\t(b)\tthe construction worker has not previously had an effective service entitlement of 2 600 days or more; and\n\t(c)\tthe construction worker ceases to be employed as such for a continuous period that is equal to, or longer than, the prescribed period for some reason other than physical or mental disability and no right to preservation of the effective service entitlement arises under this Act,\nthe effective service entitlement will be cancelled (but the subsection does not apply where the construction worker continues in employment by the person in whose employment the entitlement accrued (either wholly or in part) or where the construction worker continues to be employed by an employer within the construction industry).\n\t(5)\tWhere a person takes long service leave, or receives a payment on account of long service leave, the person's effective service entitlement is reduced accordingly.\n15—Crediting effective service under this Act and the Long Service Leave Act\n\t(1)\tFor the purposes of this section, if a person employed as a construction worker commences work in a different capacity in the service of the same employer, the following provisions apply:\n\t(a)\tthe person's continuity of service is preserved, but only in respect of the aggregate of the periods of work undertaken in each capacity in the service of that employer (and not in respect of any periods of work undertaken with any other employer);\n\t(b)\tthe period of effective service credited under this Act in respect of work undertaken by the person as a construction worker in the service of that employer (but no other employer) will be credited to the person under the Long Service Leave Act 1987 (on the basis that 5 days of effective service under this Act is equivalent to 7 days of service under the other Act) (and an effective service so credited will then be cancelled under this Act).\n\t(2)\tFor the purposes of this section, if a person employed in a capacity other than as a construction worker commences work as a construction worker in the service of the same employer, the following provisions apply:\n\t(a)\tthe person's continuity of service is preserved, but only in respect of the aggregate of the periods of work undertaken in each capacity in the service of that employer (and not in respect of any periods of work undertaken with any other employer);\n\t(b)\tthe period of service in respect of work undertaken by the person other than as a construction worker in the service of that employer (but no other employer) calculated in accordance with the Long Service Leave Act 1987 up to the point of change in the nature of employment will be credited as effective service for the purposes of this Act (on the basis that 7 days of service under the other Act is equivalent to 5 days of effective service under this Act).\n\t(3)\tIf—\n\t(a)\ta person's service under the Long Service Leave Act 1987 includes a period of effective service credited under subsection (1); and\n\t(b)\tthe person becomes entitled to long service leave, or to a payment in lieu of long service leave, under that Act,\nthe Board must pay to the person's employer (being the employer referred to in subsection (1)) an amount calculated as follows:\n\nwhere—\nA is the amount payable\nOWP is the person's ordinary weekly pay applicable under the Long Service Leave Act 1987\nD is the total number of days of effective service entitlement of the person as a construction worker under this Act minus the portion of effective service entitlement representing the construction work undertaken by the person in the service of any employer other than the employer referred to in subsection (1).\n\t(4)\tIf—\n\t(a)\ta person's effective service entitlement under this Act includes a period of service credited under subsection (2); and\n\t(b)\tthe person becomes entitled to long service leave, or to a payment on account of long service leave, under this Act,\nthe Board may recover from the person's employer (being the employer referred to in subsection (2)) an amount calculated as follows:\n\nwhere—\nA is the amount payable\nOWP is the person's ordinary weekly pay applicable under this Act\nD is the person's period of continuous service accrued under the Long Service Leave Act 1987 at the time that the person commenced work as a construction worker (expressed in days).\n16—Long service leave entitlement\n\t(1)\tSubject to this Act, a construction worker who has an effective service entitlement of 2 600 days is entitled to 13 weeks long service leave.\n\t(2)\tLong service leave must be granted by the employer by whom the construction worker is employed when the entitlement arises as soon as practicable (taking into account the needs of the employer) after the person becomes entitled to the leave.\n\t(3)\tNotwithstanding subsection (2), an employer and a construction worker may agree that the construction worker take leave in separate periods subject to the following qualifications:\n\t(a)\ta construction worker's first long service leave entitlement cannot be taken in more than three separate periods; and\n\t(b)\teach such period must be constituted by whole weeks of leave and be of at least two weeks duration; and\n\t(c)\tany subsequent period of long service leave to which the construction worker becomes entitled must be taken in periods of at least two weeks duration.\n\t(4)\tWhere—\n\t(a)\ta construction worker takes long service leave; or\n\t(b)\tthe construction worker's employment by the employer referred to in subsection (2) comes to an end before he or she takes accrued long service leave and the worker, in a manner and form approved by the Board, makes an election under this

not);\n\t(d)\tarchitectural models;\n\t(e)\tmaterial for suspended ceilings.\nSchedule 2—Effective service entitlement—electrical or metal trades\n1—Interpretation\nIn this Schedule—\nthe 1990 Act means the Long Service Leave (Building Industry) Act Amendment Act 1990;\nthe prescribed period means the period of seven years immediately preceding the commencement of the 1990 Act.\n2—Application of Schedule\nThis Schedule applies to a person who becomes a construction worker on the commencement of the 1990 Act by virtue of the application of this Act to persons employed in the electrical and metal trades industry.\n3—Crediting of effective service entitlement\n\t(1)\tA person to whom this Schedule applies is, on the commencement of the 1990 Act, in respect of service in the electrical and metal trades industry before that commencement, entitled to be credited with an effective service entitlement calculated on the basis that—\n\t(a)\tany service that occurred during the prescribed period; and\n\t(b)\tin the case of a person who was continuously employed by the same employer over the whole of the prescribed period—any service with that employer over a continuous period up to the commencement of the prescribed period,\nwill give rise to an effective service entitlement equal to two-thirds of the effective service entitlement that would accrue under this Act in respect of comparable service in the building industry.\n\t(2)\tSubsection (1) is subject to the following qualifications:\n\t(a)\ta person will not be credited with an entitlement for any service for which he or she has taken long service leave, or received a payment on account of long service leave, under an award or agreement in force before the commencement of the 1990 Act; and\n\t(b)\tif, immediately before the commencement of the 1990 Act, the person had an entitlement to long service leave (or an entitlement to receive a payment on account of long service leave) under an award or agreement by virtue of completing 15 years (or more) service with the same employer, the person will not be credited with an entitlement under this Act in respect of that service.\nSchedule 3—Preservation and conversion of entitlements—1995 Act\n1—Interpretation\nIn this Schedule—\n1995 Act means the Construction Industry Long Service Leave (Miscellaneous) Amendment Act 1995.\n2—Conversion of entitlements\nIf a person has an effective service entitlement immediately before the commencement of the 1995 Act, then—\n\t(a)\tthe effective service entitlement will, on the commencement of the 1995 Act, be converted to an effective service entitlement expressed in days in accordance with the following formula:\n\nwhere—\nE is the effective service entitlement (expressed in whole days rounded up to the next day)\nEM is the person's aggregate effective service entitlement under this Act immediately before the commencement of the 1995 Act (expressed in months);\n\t(b)\twhen leave is taken after the commencement of the 1995 Act, it will be taken that the person is first taking leave attributable to an effective service entitlement accrued before the commencement of the 1995 Act (as converted under paragraph (a)) (until that entitlement is expended); and\n\t(c)\tdespite any other provision of this Act, insofar as a person is taking leave that is attributable to an effective service entitlement accrued before the commencement of the 1995 Act, the person's ordinary weekly pay in respect of that leave will be taken to be an amount determined as if the 1995 Act had not been enacted.\n3—Continuity of application\nIf—\n\t(a)\ta person was, immediately before the commencement of the 1995 Act—\n\t(i)\tin employment that qualified the person as a construction worker under this Act; and\n\t(ii)\tregistered with the Board; and\n\t(b)\tthis Act would, but for this subsection, cease to apply to work in that form of employment on the commencement of the 1995 Act,\nthen this Act will, despite the enactment of the 1995 Act (and without limiting the application of this Act to a person who subsequently works as a construction worker in any other form of employment), continue to apply to the person while he or she remains in that form of employment with the same employer (as if the person continued to be a construction worker within the meaning of this Act).\n4—Special rates—Self-employed contractors\nThe Board may, on the commencement of the 1995 Act, for the purposes of section 37A of this Act—\n\t(a)\tset a contribution rate; and\n\t(b)\tset an interest rate,\nfor the 1994/1995 financial year (despite the commencement of that financial year).\nSchedule 4—Transitional provisions—1975 Act\n1—Interpretation\nIn this Schedule—\n1987 transitional provisions means the provisions that constituted Schedule 3 of this Act at the time that this Act came into operation (1 April 1988).\n2—Effective service entitlements not previously recognised\nThe Board may, on its own initiative or on application under this Schedule, credit to a person under this Act any effective service entitlement that accrued to the person under the repealed Act in respect of any period of service occurring after the commencement of that Act (and that has not been previously credited to the person under this Act).\n3—Employer contributions\n\t(1)\tIf—\n\t(a)\ta person is credited with an effective service entitlement under the 1987 transitional provisions or under this Schedule; and\n\t(b)\tcontributions have not been paid by the person who was the employer in respect of the period of service to which the entitlement relates,\nthe Board is entitled to recover from the person referred to in paragraph (b), in respect of any period of service occurring after the commencement of the repealed Act, an amount assessed or estimated by the Board as being equal to the total contributions that would have been payable by the person as an employer under the repealed Act in respect of that period of service, together with interest on each such contribution at a rate equal to the rate that applies under section 29(1)(a) for each full financial year from the date on which the contribution would have been so payable.\n\t(2)\tAn amount that the Board is entitled to recover from a person under subclause (1) will be taken to be unpaid levy assessed by the Board as being payable by the person as an employer under section 28(2) (and may be recovered by the Board as such).\n\t(3)\tThe Board may—\n\t(a)\tallow an amount payable under subclause (1) to be paid by instalments over a period not exceeding 12 months;\n\t(b)\tfor any proper reason remit interest payable under subclause (1) wholly or in part.\n4—Leave previously granted\nLong service leave granted, or a payment made on account of long service leave, before the commencement of this Act will, in respect of the period or entitlement to which it related, be presumed to have been granted or made under this Act.\nSchedule 5—Coverage of awards\n1—Coverage of awards\nSection 5 operates subject to the qualification that to the extent that the application of this Act to a person's employment depends on whether or not an award applies in relation to the person then—\n\t(a)\tthis Act will apply to the person if, after taking into account (and applying) the provisions of any award that applied under this Act on 31 December 2009, the person's employment would be subject to the application of this Act; and\n\t(b)\tthis Act will not apply to the person if, after taking into account (and applying) the provisions of any award that applied under this Act on 31 December 2009, the person's employment would not be subject to the application of this Act.\n2—Related principles\nClause 1—\n\t(a)\tdoes not limit any requirement under this Act for an agreement to be in place or for any other step to be taken; and\n\t(b)\toperates on the basis that to the extent of any inconsistency between an award referred to in Schedule 1 or 1A and an award that operates under clause 1(a) or (b), the award that operates under clause 1(a) or (b) prevails to the extent of the inconsistency (even though the award has been superseded by an award under Schedule 1 or 1A).\nLegislative history\nNotes\n\t•\tPlease note—References in the legislation to other legislation or instruments or to titles of bodies or offices are not automatically updated as part of the program for the revision and publication of legislation and therefore may be obsolete.\n\t•\tEarlier versions

Under normal long service leave rules, you'd need to stay with the **same employer** for years to qualify. This Act fixes that problem by allowing construction workers to **accumulate leave entitlements across multiple employers**, as long as they keep working in the construction industry in South Australia.\n\n### Who it affects\n- **Construction workers** (labourers, tradespeople, site workers)\n- **Employers** in the construction industry, who must register and make contributions to a central fund\n- A **managing body** (typically a Board) that collects contributions and pays out leave entitlements\n\n### Key practical impacts\n- Workers build up leave based on total time in the industry, not time with one boss\n- Employers pay regular levies (fees) into a central scheme\n- Workers can claim paid leave once they hit the qualifying threshold (typically 10 years in the industry)\n\n⚠️ *This summary is based on the law's title and known purpose.

Where the Board borrows (s23) or makes loans for training (s22), the Fund (and indirectly levy payers) bear those financial consequences because the Fund finances payments and Board costs (s20(3)–(4)).\n\n### Key operational mechanics that change behaviour\n\n- Levy funding centralises employers' long-service liability into a pooled Fund rather than leaving each employer solely liable for an individual's leave (s20, s26). Employers therefore face an ongoing operating cost proportional to wages for covered workers (s26(2)).  \n- The Board annually commissions an actuary to report on Fund sufficiency and to indicate whether contribution rates should change; the Board may vary the levy only after following the reporting/notice process and within a statutory cap (s24(1)–(4); s26(2a)). This creates a rule-based channel for levy adjustments tied to actuarial assessment (s24, s26(2a)).  \n- The Board can determine or adjust a worker's \"ordinary weekly pay\" in particular cases where the formula would otherwise be excessive or insufficient (s4A). That is an administrative power that can change benefit amounts for particular workers.  \n- Employers and covered workers must keep records, provide returns and respond to Board information requests; non‑compliance can attract fines, interest and other enforcement steps (records and returns: s27, s40; penalties: s27(5), s29, s43).\n\n### Incentives, trade-offs and compliance costs (mechanisms, not judgments)\n\n- Incentives and concentration of costs: Employers incur the levy as a percentage of remuneration (s26(2)), so labour‑intensive firms and projects have higher levies in dollar terms. The cap on the levy percentage (<= 3%) limits how large that share can grow (s26(2a)(b)).  \n- Administrative and compliance burdens: Employers must register, lodge returns at prescribed intervals, keep records for at least five years and may be required to verify returns or provide statutory declarations (registration and returns: s27(1)–(4); recordkeeping: s40). Failure to comply exposes employers to fines and assessments (s27(5); s28; s29).  \n- Discretion and decision‑making points: the Board has several discretionary powers—setting levy percentage within the statutory process (s26(2a)); determining ordinary weekly pay in particular circumstances (s4A); granting exemptions to certain interstate employers (s38A(2)); and, subject to some limits, allowing extensions or preserving entitlements in particular circumstances (s18(1); s37A(3)–(3b)). The Minister can give written directions to the Board which must be published in the Board's annual report (s6(5)–(7)). These are concrete channels where administrative judgment changes outcomes.  \n- Redistribution and opportunity cost: money paid into the Fund finances entitlements, Board costs and certain authorised uses (s20(3)–(4)). The Act permits the Board to lend money for approved training schemes with Minister and Treasurer approval (s22). Using Fund money for such purposes is an explicit alternative allocation of resources that reduces funds immediately available for benefit payments unless offset by levies or investment returns.  \n- Risk‑management mechanisms: the Fund is audited annually, and an actuary must report yearly on sufficiency and recommend contribution changes where necessary (s24; s25). Those mechanisms are designed to monitor solvency and guide levy-setting decisions.  \n\n### Practical compliance and enforcement features to note\n\n- Inspectors may enter premises, examine and copy records and require answers; obstruction is an offence (s38B; s39).  \n- Levy assessments can be made on estimates if returns are missing or defective, and the Board may recover unpaid levies in court (s28; s31).  \n- Decisions of the Board are reviewable to the South Australian Employment Tribunal within specified time limits (s34), but the obligation to pay levies is not suspended by a review (s37(1)).\n\n### Complexity points built into the statute (examples you will see in operation)\n\n- multiple coverage tests and schedules that determine who is a \"construction worker\" and which awards count (s5; Schedule 1 and Schedule 1A);  \n- conversion and preservation rules for service accrued under earlier versions or other Acts (Schedules 2–4);  \n- formulaic payment calculations (s15(3)–(4); s16(4); s17(1)) and administrative adjustments to ordinary weekly pay (s4A); and  \n- a mix of Board discretion, Ministerial direction and Treasurer input (s6; s12; s21(2); s22–s23). \n\nSources: provisions cited are internal references to the Act (for example, levy and cap: s26(2), s26(2a); Board establishment and Ministerial direction: s6(1), s6(5)–(7); effective service and entitlement: s14, s16; registration and self‑employed scheme: s37A; actuarial review: s24; inspection and enforcement: s38B, s39; returns and records: s27, s40)."},"issue_detection":{"absurdities":[],"contradictions":[]},"kimi_summary":{"content_quality":"ok","complexity_score":7,"scope_assessment":{"changed":true,"description":"The legislation has expanded significantly beyond its original 1987 scope covering only the 'building industry'.

Unlike standard long service leave that requires staying with one employer for years, this scheme is **portable** — it follows workers as they move between different employers in the construction industry.\n\n**Who it affects:**\n\n*   **Construction workers** — people working under awards (industrial agreements) listed in the Act, including building trades, electrical work, and metal trades on building sites. This includes apprentices and certain foremen.\n*   **Employers** — builders and contractors who must pay levies (contributions) to fund the scheme.\n*   **Self-employed contractors and working directors** — can opt into a special investment scheme to preserve their entitlements.\n*   **The Construction Industry Long Service Leave Board** — a government body that administers the fund, collects levies, and pays out entitlements.\n\n**How it works:**\n\n*   Workers accrue **\"effective service\"** — roughly one day for each day worked (capped at 5 days per week).\n*   After **2,600 days** of effective service (about 10 years), a worker is entitled to **13 weeks** of paid long service leave.\n*   Employers pay a **levy** (percentage of wages, capped at 3%) into the **Construction Industry Fund**.\n*   The Board pays workers directly when they take leave or when they stop working in the industry due to retirement, disability, or death.\n*   Special rules allow workers to preserve entitlements if they become supervisors, work for unions, or move interstate.\n\n**Why it matters:**\n\nConstruction work is project-based and workers frequently change employers. Without this Act, most would never qualify for long service leave. This law ensures they don't lose accrued benefits when switching jobs within the industry, providing financial security for a mobile workforce.\n\n**Key features:**\n\n*   **Portable entitlements** — move with the worker, not the employer\n*   **Funded by industry levies** — not individual employer liability\n*   **Covers gaps** — includes provisions for supervisors, self-employed contractors, and interstate workers\n*   **Enforcement** — inspectors can check records and employers face penalties for non-compliance"}},"importantCases":[],"_links":{"self":"/api/acts/construction-industry-long-service-leave-act-1987","history":"/api/acts/construction-industry-long-service-leave-act-1987/history","analysis":"/api/acts/construction-industry-long-service-leave-act-1987/analysis","conflicts":"/api/acts/construction-industry-long-service-leave-act-1987/conflicts","importantCases":"/api/acts/construction-industry-long-service-leave-act-1987/important-cases","documents":"/api/acts/construction-industry-long-service-leave-act-1987/documents"}}
