Application for variation of The Mount Hospital (Professional, Clerical, Technical Employees) Enterprise Agreement 2023

[1] Healthscope Operations Pty Ltd has applied for approval of a variation (Variation) to The Mount Hospital (Professional, Clerical, Technical Employees) Enterprise Agreement 2023 ("Agreement"). The application is made under section 210 of the Fair Work Act 2009 (Act).

[2] The effect of the Variation is to introduce into the Agreement a new salary packaging clause in anticipation of Healthscope transitioning to become a not-for-profit organisation.

[3] The Agreement covers the Health Services Union (HSU). The HSU has not filed a Form F23B. In an email that was issued from my Chambers on 7 January 2026 in relation to this and related applications, we enquired whether the HSU intended to file a Form F23B and/or wished to be heard on the application. We did not receive a response.

[4] Having regard to the material in the application and accompanying declaration, I am satisfied that each of the requirements of sections 210 and 211 as are relevant to the application for approval of the Variation have been met.

[5] The Variation is approved. The Variation takes effect from the date of this decision.

[6] The consolidated version of the Agreement, as varied, is attached to this decision.
