December is usually the busiest time of the year for enterprise agreement applications. The Commission does not close over the festive period, and we will continue to process and approve enterprise agreements as quickly as possible.
To support your application being dealt with efficiently, we recommend you:
- check the helpful information on our online guide: Make an enterprise agreement
- make sure your application is complete and complies with all requirements
- lodge your application as early as possible
- provide contact details for someone available during the festive period or tell us if no one will be.
Note: If you don’t respond to our requests for more information, your application may be delayed or dismissed.
We usually approve simple (complete and compliant) applications in about 2 weeks. More complicated or incomplete ones often take longer. If a large number of applications are lodged in the second half of December, the increased volume may also cause delays, so we recommend you get in early.
