Plain English Summary

8/10 complexity

The Act creates a statutory Board and pooled Fund to administer long‑service leave for covered construction workers, funded by an employer levy on remuneration. Employers must register, lodge returns and pay levies; self‑employed contractors/working directors can opt into a separate investment scheme. The scheme centralises long‑service liability, shifts immediate cash cost to employers, requires actuarial oversight and recordkeeping, and gives the Board inspection, enforcement and discretionary powers—so it changes employer costs, compliance burdens and how leave entitlements are preserved and paid.

What it does

The Construction Industry Long Service Leave Act 1987 (the Act) establishes a sector‑specific long service leave scheme for workers in the construction industry in South Australia and sets up the institutional, financial and enforcement framework to operate it. Mechanically the Act does the following.

Creates and governs the Construction Industry Long Service Leave Board (the Board) as a corporate body charged with administering the scheme (ss 6-13B). The Board is subject to written directions from the Minister which must be published in the Board's next annual report (s 6(5)-(7)).
Consolidates funds for long service leave administration in a single Construction Industry Fund, defines what may be paid from it, exempts the Fund from State taxes and charges, and authorises investment, borrowing and loans for training with Ministerial/Treasurer approval (ss 20-24, 20C, 21-23).
Imposes employer levies to fund entitlements, authorises the Board to fix a prescribed percentage of remuneration as the levy (subject to procedural constraints and an upper limit), prescribes return and payment obligations, and provides administrative recovery, assessment and penalty mechanisms for defaults (ss 26-32).
Specifies who is covered (the Act's ambit), how effective service is accrued and credited (days, allowable absences, caps), the qualifying thresholds for leave and payments, rules for preservation, conversion and transfer of entitlements relative to other long service schemes, and special provisions for self‑employed contractors and working directors (ss 4, 5, 14-19, 15, 37A).
Provides compliance tools: registration and record‑keeping obligations, inspector powers of entry and examination, powers to require information, certificates admissible as evidence, and summary offence penalties and expiation schemes (ss 27, 30, 39-45, 43).

(3) In making a determination under this section the Board must take into account any written submission received within the time specified under subsection (2) and may otherwise inform itself in such manner as it thinks fit, but except as provided by this section the Board is not required to give to any person notice of or an opportunity to answer or to be heard in relation to any matter taken into account by the Board in making the determination. (4) The Board must cause notice of its determination to be served on the construction worker (or his or her personal representative) and on the construction worker's employer (if any). (5) The notice must include a statement of the grounds upon which the determination has been made. (6) If the Board makes a determination of a construction worker's ordinary weekly pay under this section, that determination will prevail over any amount that would otherwise constitute the construction worker's ordinary weekly pay under this Act. 5—Application of this Act (1aa) Subject to this section and Schedule 5, this Act applies to a person's employment if the person is within the ambit of subsections (1), (1a) or (1b). (1) A person is within the ambit of this subsection if— (a) the person works under a contract of service in the construction industry; and (b) — (i) an award referred to in Schedule 1 or the regulations prescribes a weekly rate of pay for work of that kind; or (ii) the person works on site as a foreman and within 12 months before commencing work as a foreman the person worked in some other capacity as a construction worker under an award referred to in Schedule 1 or the regulations; and (c) — (i) the employment involves on site work that makes up the whole, or a proportion of at least one-half, of the period of employment over— (A) in the case of a person employed for less than 1 month—the whole period of employment; or (B) in the case of a person employed for 1 month or more but less than 3 months—the first month of employment; or (C) in the case of a person employed for 3 months or more—any 3 month period of employment; or (ii) in the case of a foreman, the on site employment involves supervising other employees who work on the site, but without affecting any accrued effective service entitlement, this subsection ceases to apply to the employment if the employee has not worked on site for the last three months or, in the case of a foreman, has not gone on site in the performance of his or her functions as a foreman for the last three months (disregarding any period during which the employee is absent from work as a result of an allowable absence). (1a) A person is within the ambit of this subsection if— (a) the person works under a contract of service in the construction industry; and (b) an award referred to in Schedule 1A, or the regulations, prescribe a weekly rate of pay for work of that kind (subject to any limitation as to classifications referred to in that Schedule or the regulations); and (c) the person's employer has registered with the Board as an employer for the purposes of this Act; and (d) the person's employer and the Board have agreed that the Act should apply to the person. (1b) A person is within the ambit of this subsection if— (a) the person has been employed as a construction worker within the ambit of subsections (1) or (1a); and (b) the person is seconded to a relevant association to act as an officer or employee of the association after being granted leave without pay by an employer in the construction industry; and (c) the relevant association is registered with the Board for the purposes of this provision; and (d) the person is not (and does not become) a member of the governing body of the relevant association, but without affecting an accrued effective service entitlement, this subsection ceases to apply to the person if the person attains an effective service entitlement of 2 600 days. (2) Where this Act applies to employment by virtue of subsection (1)(c)(i)(C), it will be taken to have commenced to apply from the commencement of the three-month period referred to in that subsection. (2a) Where this Act applies to employment by virtue of subsection (1b), the relevant association will be taken to be the employer of the person (as a construction worker) for the purposes of this Act. (2b) Despite subsection (1aa), Parts 3 and 5 do not apply to a person's employment (and consequently the person is not a construction worker for the purposes of those Parts) if the person's employer is a body corporate and the person is a director of that body corporate. (3) Where— (a) a person carries out construction work on premises owned or occupied by his or her employer (not being premises intended for subsequent sale or lease); and (b) that is the sole construction work in which the person is engaged by that employer, this Act does not apply to that employment. (3a) Subsections (1) and (1a) do not apply in relation to a person who— (a) is employed in the civil construction industry as defined in the Building and Construction General On‑site Award 2010 unless the person is employed in building work that wholly or predominantly involves working on structures within the meaning of this Act; or (b) falls within any class of employees excluded from the operation of that subsection by the regulations.

(6) The Board must have accurate minutes kept of its proceedings at meetings. (7) Subject to this Act, the business of the Board will be conducted in a manner determined by the Board. 11—Conflict of interest under Public Sector (Honesty and Accountability) Act A member of the Board will not be taken to have a direct or indirect interest in a matter for the purposes of the Public Sector (Honesty and Accountability) Act 1995 by reason only of the fact that the member has an interest in a matter that is shared in common with those engaged in or associated with the construction industry generally, or a substantial section of those engaged in or associated with the construction industry. 12—Delegation by Board (1) The Board may, by instrument in writing, delegate any of its powers or functions. (2) A delegation under this section— (a) may be made to a member of the Board or any other person engaged in the administration of this Act; and (b) may be made subject to such conditions as the Board thinks fit; and (c) is revocable at will and does not derogate from the power of the Board to act in any matter itself.

Part 3—Long service leave entitlements 14—Effective service entitlement (1) Subject to this Act, a construction worker's entitlement to long service leave, or payment on account of long service leave, is determined according to his or her aggregate effective service entitlement. (2) A person will be credited with one day of effective service— (a) for each day that he or she works as a construction worker; and (b) for each day of a period of allowable absence, (and the aggregate of those days of effective service will be the worker's aggregate effective service entitlement). (2a) However, a person cannot be credited with more than five days of effective service in any week (and accordingly cannot be credited with more than 260 days of effective service in a financial year). (3) Where— (a) a construction worker who has an effective service entitlement of less than 2 600 days is dismissed from employment as a construction worker; and (b) the Board is satisfied, after affording the former construction worker and his or her former employer an opportunity to be heard, that the construction worker was properly dismissed on the ground of serious and wilful misconduct, any effective service entitlement of the worker accrued in that employment is cancelled. (4) Where— (a) a construction worker has an effective service entitlement of less than 1 820 days; and (b) the construction worker has not previously had an effective service entitlement of 2 600 days or more; and (c) the construction worker ceases to be employed as such for a continuous period that is equal to, or longer than, the prescribed period for some reason other than physical or mental disability and no right to preservation of the effective service entitlement arises under this Act, the effective service entitlement will be cancelled (but the subsection does not apply where the construction worker continues in employment by the person in whose employment the entitlement accrued (either wholly or in part) or where the construction worker continues to be employed by an employer within the construction industry). (5) Where a person takes long service leave, or receives a payment on account of long service leave, the person's effective service entitlement is reduced accordingly. 15—Crediting effective service under this Act and the Long Service Leave Act (1) For the purposes of this section, if a person employed as a construction worker commences work in a different capacity in the service of the same employer, the following provisions apply: (a) the person's continuity of service is preserved, but only in respect of the aggregate of the periods of work undertaken in each capacity in the service of that employer (and not in respect of any periods of work undertaken with any other employer); (b) the period of effective service credited under this Act in respect of work undertaken by the person as a construction worker in the service of that employer (but no other employer) will be credited to the person under the Long Service Leave Act 1987 (on the basis that 5 days of effective service under this Act is equivalent to 7 days of service under the other Act) (and an effective service so credited will then be cancelled under this Act). (2) For the purposes of this section, if a person employed in a capacity other than as a construction worker commences work as a construction worker in the service of the same employer, the following provisions apply: (a) the person's continuity of service is preserved, but only in respect of the aggregate of the periods of work undertaken in each capacity in the service of that employer (and not in respect of any periods of work undertaken with any other employer); (b) the period of service in respect of work undertaken by the person other than as a construction worker in the service of that employer (but no other employer) calculated in accordance with the Long Service Leave Act 1987 up to the point of change in the nature of employment will be credited as effective service for the purposes of this Act (on the basis that 7 days of service under the other Act is equivalent to 5 days of effective service under this Act). (3) If— (a) a person's service under the Long Service Leave Act 1987 includes a period of effective service credited under subsection (1); and (b) the person becomes entitled to long service leave, or to a payment in lieu of long service leave, under that Act, the Board must pay to the person's employer (being the employer referred to in subsection (1)) an amount calculated as follows:

where— A is the amount payable OWP is the person's ordinary weekly pay applicable under the Long Service Leave Act 1987 D is the total number of days of effective service entitlement of the person as a construction worker under this Act minus the portion of effective service entitlement representing the construction work undertaken by the person in the service of any employer other than the employer referred to in subsection (1). (4) If— (a) a person's effective service entitlement under this Act includes a period of service credited under subsection (2); and (b) the person becomes entitled to long service leave, or to a payment on account of long service leave, under this Act, the Board may recover from the person's employer (being the employer referred to in subsection (2)) an amount calculated as follows:

where— A is the amount payable OWP is the person's ordinary weekly pay applicable under this Act D is the person's period of continuous service accrued under the Long Service Leave Act 1987 at the time that the person commenced work as a construction worker (expressed in days). 16—Long service leave entitlement (1) Subject to this Act, a construction worker who has an effective service entitlement of 2 600 days is entitled to 13 weeks long service leave. (2) Long service leave must be granted by the employer by whom the construction worker is employed when the entitlement arises as soon as practicable (taking into account the needs of the employer) after the person becomes entitled to the leave. (3) Notwithstanding subsection (2), an employer and a construction worker may agree that the construction worker take leave in separate periods subject to the following qualifications: (a) a construction worker's first long service leave entitlement cannot be taken in more than three separate periods; and (b) each such period must be constituted by whole weeks of leave and be of at least two weeks duration; and (c) any subsequent period of long service leave to which the construction worker becomes entitled must be taken in periods of at least two weeks duration. (4) Where— (a) a construction worker takes long service leave; or (b) the construction worker's employment by the employer referred to in subsection (2) comes to an end before he or she takes accrued long service leave and the worker, in a manner and form approved by the Board, makes an election under this provision, the Board must pay to the person an amount calculated by multiplying his or her ordinary weekly pay by the period of leave referred to in paragraph (a) or (b) (as the case may be). (5) If a person dies, any entitlement of the person under this section vests in his or her personal representative. 17—Cessation of employment (1) Where, on application to the Board in a form approved by the Board, the Board is satisfied that— (a) — (i) a construction worker has attained an effective service entitlement of 1 820 days or more (but less than 2 600 days); or (ii) a construction worker has attained an effective service entitlement of less than 1 820 days and has previously had an effective service entitlement of 2 600 days or more; or (iii) a construction worker has attained an effective service entitlement of 2 600 days but has not taken all of the long service leave to which he or she is entitled; and (b) the construction worker has— (i) died; or (iii) ceased to work as a construction worker because of a physical or mental disability that will prevent him or her from working as a construction worker for a continuous period of 12 months or more; or (iv) ceased to work as a construction worker and will not be working as a construction worker for a continuous period of 12 months or more (from the time when he or she ceased to work as a construction worker), the Board must pay to the person (or his or her personal representative) an amount calculated as follows:

where— A is the amount payable OWP is the person's ordinary weekly pay applicable under this Act as at— — if the worker has died—the day of death; — in any other case—the day on which the person ceased work as a construction worker D is the effective service entitlement (expressed in days). (2) If the Board rejects an application under subsection (1), the Board must give the applicant written notice of its decision (setting out a brief statement of the Board's reasons for making its decision). 18—Preservation of entitlements in certain cases (1) If— (a) a person who has an effective service entitlement ceases to be employed as a construction worker; and (b) the person is not entitled to long service leave or a payment for pro rata long service leave; and (c) the person commences work as a supervisor in the construction industry within the prescribed period after cessation of his or her employment as a construction worker; and (d) the person provides notice of his or her work as a supervisor to the Board in accordance with the regulations within six months after the person commences work as a supervisor in the construction industry (or within such longer period as the Board may, in its absolute discretion, allow), the effective service entitlement is preserved. (2) If the person (or his or her personal representative) satisfies the Board that the aggregate period of work in the construction industry (as a construction worker and subsequently as a supervisor) totals 1 820 working days or more, the Board must pay to the person (or his or her personal representative) an amount calculated as follows:

where— A is the amount payable OWP is the person's ordinary weekly pay applicable under this Act D is the effective service entitlement preserved under subsection (1) (expressed in days). (3) In this section— supervisor means a person (other than a person within the ambit of section 5(1)) who is responsible for the daily on site supervision of works. 19—Employment during leave (1) A construction worker must not, while on long service leave, engage in any other employment in place of his or her employment as a construction worker. Maximum penalty: $1 000. Expiation fee: $100. (2) An employer must not, knowing that a construction worker is on long service leave, engage him or her in employment so that a breach of subsection (1) is committed. Maximum penalty: $1 000.

Schedule 5—Coverage of awards 1—Coverage of awards Section 5 operates subject to the qualification that to the extent that the application of this Act to a person's employment depends on whether or not an award applies in relation to the person then— (a) this Act will apply to the person if, after taking into account (and applying) the provisions of any award that applied under this Act on 31 December 2009, the person's employment would be subject to the application of this Act; and (b) this Act will not apply to the person if, after taking into account (and applying) the provisions of any award that applied under this Act on 31 December 2009, the person's employment would not be subject to the application of this Act. 2—Related principles Clause 1— (a) does not limit any requirement under this Act for an agreement to be in place or for any other step to be taken; and (b) operates on the basis that to the extent of any inconsistency between an award referred to in Schedule 1 or 1A and an award that operates under clause 1(a) or (b), the award that operates under clause 1(a) or (b) prevails to the extent of the inconsistency (even though the award has been superseded by an award under Schedule 1 or 1A).

(4) A decision, direction or order of the Appeals Tribunal under the principal Act in force immediately before the relevant day will, on and from the relevant day, be taken to be a decision, direction or order of SAET. (5) A right of appeal under section 34 of the principal Act in existence before the relevant day (but not exercised before that day) will be exercised as if this Part had been in operation before the right arose, so that the relevant proceedings may be commenced before SAET rather than the Appeals Tribunal. (6) Any proceedings before the Appeals Tribunal under the principal Act immediately before the relevant day will, subject to such directions as the President of SAET thinks fit, be transferred to SAET where they may proceed as if they had been commenced before SAET. (7) SAET may— (a) receive in evidence any transcript of evidence in proceedings before the Appeals Tribunal, and draw any conclusions of fact from that evidence that appear proper; and (b) adopt any findings or determinations of the Appeals Tribunal that may be relevant to proceedings before SAET; and (c) adopt or make any decision (including a decision in the nature of a determination), direction or order in relation to proceedings before the Appeals Tribunal before the relevant day (including so as to make a decision or determination, or a direction or order, in relation to proceedings fully heard before the relevant day); and (d) take other steps to promote or ensure the smoothest possible transition from 1 jurisdiction to another in connection with the operation of this section.
