37. Public holidays Holidays

37.1 National Employment Standards

(a) Public holidays are provided for in the NES Substitution by Agreement

By agreement between the employer and the majority of employees in the relevant enterprise or section of the enterprise, an alternative day may be taken as the public holiday instead of any of the days prescribed in s.115 of the Act holidays in this award.

(b) Additional arrangements for full-time employees:

(i) A full-time employee whose rostered day off falls on a public holiday must, subject to clause 32.2, either:

• be paid an extra day’s pay; or

• be provided with an alternative day off within 28 days; or

• receive an additional day’s annual leave.

For the purposes of this subclause a “day” is equal to the length of time of the rostered day off that falls on the holiday.

(ii) A full-time employee who works on a public holiday which is subject to substitution as provided for by the NES this award will be entitled to the benefit of the substitute day.

(c) Arrangements for part-time employees

Part-time employees are entitled to public holidays prescribed in s.115 of the Act holidays as defined in clause 3 without loss of pay if those public holidays fall on days agreed under clauses 12.3 and 12.4. Part-time employees who work on a public holiday must be paid in accordance with clause 32.

(d) Part Day Additional Holidays

(i) Where a full-time employee is usually rostered to work ordinary hours on a part day additional holiday, but as a result of having a rostered day off (RDO) provided under this award, does not work, the employee will be taken to be on an additional holiday for such hours and paid their ordinary rate of pay for those hours.

(ii) A full-time employee not rostered to work on a part-day additional holiday, other than an employee who has exercised their right to refuse to work in accordance with the NES, will not be entitled to another day off, another day’s pay or another day of annual leave as a result of the part-day additional holiday.

Schedule H—2015 Part-day Public Holidays

This schedule operates where this award otherwise contains provisions dealing with public holidays that supplement the NES.

H.1 Where a part-day public holiday is declared or prescribed between 7.00pm and midnight on Christmas Eve (24 December 2015) or New Year’s Eve (31 December 2015) the following will apply on Christmas Eve and New Year’s Eve and will override any provision in this award relating to public holidays to the extent of the inconsistency:

(a) All employees will have the right to refuse to work on the part-day public holiday if the request to work is not reasonable or the refusal is reasonable as provided for in the NES.

(b) Where a part-time or full-time employee is usually rostered to work ordinary hours between 7.00pm and midnight but as a result of exercising their right under the NES does not work, they will be paid their ordinary rate of pay for such hours not worked.

(c) Where a part-time or full-time employee is usually rostered to work ordinary hours between 7.00pm and midnight but as a result of being on annual leave does not work, they will be taken not to be on annual leave between those hours of 7.00pm and midnight that they would have usually been rostered to work and will be paid their ordinary rate of pay for such hours.

(d) Where a part-time or full-time employee is usually rostered to work ordinary hours between 7.00pm and midnight, but as a result of having a rostered day off (RDO) provided under this award, does not work, the employee will be taken to be on a public holiday for such hours and paid their ordinary rate of pay for those hours.

(e) Excluding annualised salaried employees to whom clause H.1(f) applies, where an employee works any hours between 7.00pm and midnight they will be entitled to the appropriate public holiday penalty rate (if any) in this award for those hours worked.

(f) Where an employee is paid an annualised salary under the provisions of this award and is entitled under this award to time off in lieu or additional annual leave for work on a public holiday, they will be entitled to time off in lieu or pro-rata annual leave equivalent to the time worked between 7.00pm and midnight.

(g) An employee not rostered to work between 7.00pm and midnight, other than an employee who has exercised their right in accordance with clause H.1(a), will not be entitled to another day off, another day’s pay or another day of annual leave as a result of the part-day public holiday.

This schedule is not intended to detract from or supplement the NES.

This schedule is an interim provision and subject to further review.

[NOTE: Pending the outcome of its application to amend the coverage of the Hospitality Award 2010 regarding catering businesses, Restaurant and Catering Industrial may seek to amend the public holiday penalty rate for full-time and part-time employees per its outline of submissions of 1 December 2014.]
