S4.3 Safety net adjustments
S4.3.1 The rates of pay in this award include the arbitrated safety net adjustment payable under the State Wage Case July 2005. This arbitrated safety net adjustment may be offset against any equivalent amount in rates of pay received by employees whose wages and conditions of employment are regulated by this award which are above the wage rates prescribed in the award. Such above award payments include wages payable pursuant to enterprise agreements, certified agreements, currently operating enterprise flexibility agreements, Australian workplace agreements, award variations to give effect to enterprise agreements and over award arrangements. Absorption which is contrary to the terms of an agreement is not required.
Increases made under previous State Wage Case principles or under the current Declaration, excepting those resulting from enterprise agreements, or award variations to give effect to enterprise agreements, are not to be used to offset arbitrated safety net adjustments.
S4.3.2 The rates of pay in this award also contain safety net wage adjustments as determined by previous State Wage Case decisions. The absorption arrangements applying in relation to those adjustments continue to apply.
