(#P377_65856) See Liquor, Hospitality and Miscellaneous Union v Ausco Martin Pty Ltd [2010] FWAFB 6214 at [19]. This decision concerned the "no disadvantage test" applied under the Workplace Relations Act 1996 and transitional legislation. However both the no disadvantage test and the better off overall test require a broadly similar process of identifying the terms of an agreement that are more and less beneficial than those of the relevant award, leading to an overall assessment. "While the BOOT is expressed in different terms to the NDT, each involves a global assessment": Modern Awards Review 2012 - Award Flexibility [2013] FWCFB 2170 at [134]. See also the authorities cited at footnote 70 of that decision.
