Create and download the correct Notice of employee representational rights (NERR).
The full version of the notice is in schedule 2.1 of the Fair Work Regulations 2009. If you use the full version, you must delete the paragraphs that are not relevant. It is easier if you use our tool.
Section 174(1A) of the Fair Work Act 2009 explains what the notice must contain.
2. Insert details into the template
Once you have the correct version, use this as a template for your notice. You need to provide:
- the name of the employer
- the name of the proposed enterprise agreement
- which employees the agreement will cover.
Important: You must not add or remove any other information from the NERR. This is a rule in the Fair Work Regulations.
3. Save a copy of the notice
Once you complete the template, save a copy of the notice so you can:
- distribute the NERR to employees within 14 days of the notification date
- submit it to us when you lodge your application for approval.
