41 Employees with at least 10 years service

(1) This section applies to an employee of a statutory authority whose period of service under the Long Service Leave Act was at least 10 years immediately before the transfer day. (2) Even though the employee ceases to be employed in Government Service for the purposes of the Long Service Leave Act, the employee’s accrued rights under that Act continue if the employee becomes an employee of the industry services body on the transfer day. However, the employee is not entitled to receive any payment because he or she ceases to be in Government Service. (3) The Long Service Leave Act has effect on and after the transfer day in relation to the employee’s rights under that Act that accrued before the transfer day, as if the industry services body were an approving authority for the purposes of that Act.
