AN120011 – Aged Care General Services (State) Award

5. ROSTER OF HOURS

(i) The ordinary hours of work for each employee shall be displayed on a roster in a place conveniently accessible to employees. Where practicable, such roster shall be displayed two weeks, but in any case at least one week, prior to the commencing date of the first working period in any roster.

(ii) Provided that, this provision shall not make it obligatory for the employer to display any roster of ordinary hours of work of members of the casual or relieving staff.

(iii) Provided further that, a roster may be altered at any time to enable the services of the facility to be carried on where another employee is absent from duty on account of illness or in an emergency. Where such alteration involves an employee working on a day which would have been their day off, such employee may elect to be paid at overtime rates or have a day off in lieu, which shall be as mutually arranged. Provided that this provision shall not apply where the only change to the roster of a part-time employee is the mutually agreed addition of extra hours to be worked such that the part-time employee still has two rostered days off in that week or four rostered days off in that fortnight, as the case may be. Provided further that any alteration to the roster of hours of a day worker must be consistent with the definition of a day worker contained in clause 2, Definitions.

(iv) Where an employee is entitled to an allocated day off duty in accordance with clause 4, Hours, of this award, that allocated day off duty is to be shown on the roster of hours for that employee.
