A registered worker who has credit for service in the register of workers may apply to the authority for payment for all or part of the registered worker’s long service leave entitlement. A registered worker may be paid for all or part of the registered worker’s long service leave entitlement, without taking long service leave, if— an industrial instrument provides for the registered worker to be paid instead of taking the long service leave; and the registered worker has entered into a written agreement with each of the following entities to be paid all or part of the entitlement— the authority; the registered worker’s employer. If the registered worker has not entered into the agreement under subsection (2) (b) , a payment may be made only if— the registered worker has accrued 2,555 days of service in the register of workers; and the industrial commission has ordered the payment under the Industrial Relations Act 2016 , section 110 (3) . If a registered worker has died and, immediately before the worker’s death, the registered worker had a long service leave entitlement, the registered worker’s personal representative may apply to the authority for payment for all or part of the entitlement. An application under subsection (1) or (4) must be in the approved form. If the authority decides to refuse payment for an application under subsection (1) or (4) , the authority must give the applicant an information notice for the decision.
