32. ROSTERED DAY OFF FALLING ON A HOLIDAY

Where an employee’s rostered day off (either as part of a 19-day month cycle as provided in clause 20 or as part of a roster as provided in clause 26, Rosters for Weekly and Part-time Employees) falls on a day prescribed as a holiday in clause 31, Public Holidays, the employee shall be paid at the employer’s choice by one of the following methods:

32.1 Payment of an additional day’s wages equivalent to the ordinary number of hours worked by the employee on the same day in the previous similar roster.

32.2 Additional of one equivalent day to the employee’s annual holidays.

32.3 Another equivalent day may be allowed off, with pay, to the employee within 28 days after the holiday falls.

Part-time employees shall be entitled to the same benefits under this clause in the same proportion of the total benefits, as their normal working hours are a proportion of 38.

Full-time and part-time employees who have the same day off each week or roster, which day coincides with a day prescribed as a holiday in the said clause 31, shall not be entitled to any additional payment or time off in lieu.
