PART 4 – TYPES OF EMPLOYMENT 

11. TEMPORARY PART-TIME SUPPORT SERVICES OFFICERS

11.1 Scope

The provisions in this clause only apply to temporary part-time Support Services Officers who were employed at 27 December 1995 under the Australia Post (Postal Workers) Award 1985 [A0170] and who elected to remain under the conditions in that award instead of transferring to the standard permanent part-time conditions, contained in this award and the Australia Post General Conditions of Employment Award 1999. The standard permanent part-time conditions do not apply to employees covered by this clause.

11.2 Rates of pay

11.2.1 Rate of pay

Employees are to be paid no less than the hourly rate which is the equivalent (calculated on a 36.75 hour week basis) of the minimum rate prescribed for a full-time Support Services Officer of the appropriate level.

11.2.2 Loading

This hourly rate is to be increased by a loading of 12.5% for all time worked up to and including seven hours 21 minutes in any day or 36.75 hours in any week with the following exception. The loading is not applied where it would raise the total salary for a period of seven hours 21 minutes or less in any day or a period of 36.75 hours or less in any week beyond the total salary that an employee earning the same hourly rate without the 12.5% loading would earn for a total of seven hours 21 minutes in a day or a total of 36.75 hours in a week as the case may be.

11.2.3 Minimum payment

Irrespective of the rate of pay prescribed at 11.2.1 and the loading at 11.2.2, an employee must be paid a minimum of two hours pay for attendance on any day or shift.

11.2.4 Loading on annual leave

The 12.5% loading prescribed in 11.2.2 is to continue to be paid during annual leave.

11.3 Leave

An employee employed under this clause is entitled to the same annual and sick leave conditions as permanent part-time employees.

11.4 Overtime, holidays, shift, Saturday, Sunday duty

An employee employed under this clause is entitled to the same conditions as permanent part-time employees in respect of:

11.4.1 Holidays and holiday duty

11.4.2 Shift duty.

11.4.3 Saturday duty.

11.4.4 Sunday duty; and

11.4.5 Overtime.
