Application for approval of the Ridley AgriProducts - Toowoomba - Enterprise Agreement 2025

[1] An application has been made for approval of an enterprise agreement known as the Ridley AgriProducts - Toowoomba - Enterprise Agreement 2025 (the Agreement). The Application was made pursuant to s.185 of the Fair Work Act 2009 (the Act). It has been made by Ridley Agriproducts Pty Ltd (the Applicant). The Agreement is a single enterprise agreement.

[2] The Agreement title on the Notice of Employee Representational Rights was listed as 'Ridley AgriProducts Pty Ltd - Toowoomba - Enterprise Agreement 2025.' The title of the Agreement voted up by employees and contained in title clause 1 is 'Ridley AgriProducts - Toowoomba - Enterprise Agreement 2025.' I am content to consider this a minor and technical error pursuant to s.188(5) of the Act, and disregard it.

[4] Noting clause 6.3 of the Agreement, I am satisfied that the more beneficial entitlements of the NES in the Act will prevail where there is an inconsistency between the Agreement and the NES.

[5] The Agreement is approved and will operate in accordance with s.54 of the Act.
