AN120012 – Aged Care Industry (Broken Hill) Award
(a) All employees, other than casual employees, are entitled to receive an Annual Leave Loading on their ordinary rate of pay for the period of annual leave. The loading shall be:
(i) 17.5% of the ordinary weekly wage; or
(ii) the shift allowances and weekend penalty rates that would have been paid for that period, had the employee not proceeded on leave;
whichever is the greater.
(b) Annual Leave Loading shall be paid on a pro rata basis on termination of employment where the termination is employer initiated, but it shall not apply where the reason for the employer initiated termination arises from an employee's serious or wilful misconduct.
(c) The resignation of an employee shall not entitle that person to payment of pro rata annual leave loading for any period of service completed since the last annual leave entitlement fell due. However, where an entitlement has already accrued to the employee, and has yet to be paid, the final wages payment is to include such payment.
