QUBE SPECIALISED LOGISTICS VICTORIA ENTERPRISE AGREEMENT 2025

Application for approval of the Qube Specialised Logistics Victoria Enterprise Agreement 2025

[1] Qube Logistics (SI) Pty Ltd T/A Qube Logistics (the Employer) has made an application for approval of a single-enterprise agreement known as the Qube Specialised Logistics Victoria Enterprise Agreement 2025 (the Agreement), pursuant to s 185 of the Fair Work Act 2009 (Cth) (the Act).   

[2] I note that clause 13.6 (Compassionate Leave) may be inconsistent with the National Employment Standards (NES). However, clause 4(b) of the Agreement operates to provide that more beneficial entitlements of the NES will prevail where there is an inconsistency between the Agreement and the NES. Consequently, I am satisfied that the terms of the Agreement do not contravene s 55 of the Act.

[3] I am satisfied that each of the requirements of ss 186, 187 and 188 of the Act as are relevant to this application for approval have been met.

[4] The Transport Workers Union of Australia (TWU) being a bargaining representative for the Agreement, has given notice under s 183 of the Act that it wants the Agreement to cover it. In accordance with s 201(2), I note the Agreement covers the Transport Workers Union of Australia.

[5] The Agreement is approved and, notwithstanding clause 5 of the Agreement, the Agreement will operate seven days after approval in accordance with s 54 of the Act.
