s.185 - Enterprise agreement
Universities Admissions Centre (NSW & ACT) Pty Limited
UNIVERSITIES ADMISSIONS CENTRE (NSW & ACT) PTY LIMITED ENTERPRISE AGREEMENT 2024-2027
Application for approval of the Universities Admissions Centre (NSW & ACT) Pty Limited Enterprise Agreement 2024-2027.
[1] An application has been made for approval of an enterprise agreement known as the Universities Admissions Centre (NSW & ACT) Pty Limited Enterprise Agreement 2024-2027 (the Agreement). The application was made pursuant to s.185 of the Fair Work Act 2009 (the Act). It has been made by Universities Admissions Centre (NSW & ACT) Pty Limited. The Agreement is a single enterprise agreement.
[2] I am satisfied that each of the requirements of ss 186, 187 and 188 as are relevant to this application for approval have been met.
[3] The provisions at clauses 43A(3) and 43A(7) of the Agreement relating to withholding monies at termination and abandonment of employment may be inconsistent with the National Employment Standards (NES). However, noting clause 2(5) of the Agreement, I am satisfied the more beneficial entitlements of the NES will prevail where there is an inconsistency between the Agreement and the NES.
[4] CPSU, the Community and Public Sector Union, 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 that the Agreement covers the organisation.
[5] The Agreement was approved and, in accordance with s.54, will operate from 28 March 2025. The nominal expiry date of the Agreement is 30 June 2027.
