A person’s accrued right to long service leave is the person’s entitlement to take long service leave after having completed a minimum period of employment with an employer. This division applies if— a person— is employed (the new employment ) by the council (the new employer ) and was previously employed (the former employment ) by a relevant entity (the former employer ); or is employed (also the new employment ) by a relevant entity (also the new employer ) and was previously employed (also the former employment ) by the council (also the former employer ); and the period between ending the former employment and beginning the new employment is not longer than 1 year; and the person did not receive a payment from the former employer of an amount as a cash equivalent for the person’s accrued right to long service leave.
