ACTIVE RAILWAY SIGNALLING PTY LTD AND ETU VICTORIAN RAIL INFRASTRUCTURE ENTERPRISE AGREEMENT 2025- 2029

Application for approval of the Active Railway Signalling Pty Ltd and ETU Victorian Rail Infrastructure Enterprise Agreement 2025- 2029

[1] The Communications, Electrical, Electronic, Energy, Information, Postal, Plumbing and Allied Services Union of Australia (CEPU) has made an application for approval of an enterprise agreement known as the Active Railway Signalling Pty Ltd and ETU Victorian Rail Infrastructure Enterprise Agreement 2025- 2029 (the Agreement) pursuant to s 185 of the Fair Work Act 2009 (the Act). The Agreement is a single enterprise agreement.

[2] While the application is generally in order, the notice of employee representational rights that was given to employees was not in the prescribed form. However, I am satisfied that this constitutes a minor procedural or technical error for the purposes of s 188(5)(a) and that the employees covered by the Agreement are not likely to have been disadvantaged by the error. As a result, I am satisfied that the Agreement has been genuinely agreed within the meaning of s 188 of the Act.

[3] On the basis of the material contained in the application and accompanying declaration, I am satisfied that each of the requirements of ss 186, 187 and 188 as are relevant to this application for approval has been met.

[4] The CEPU, being a bargaining representative for the Agreement, has given notice under s 183 of the Act that it wants the Agreement to cover it. As required by s 201(2), I note that the Agreement covers the CEPU.

[5] The Agreement was approved on 3 December 2025.
