Industrial Board Grants Leave and Job Protections Variations
The Industrial Board approved changes to the general award under the holiday leave clause. A worker will be deemed continuously employed if absent no more than 12 days a year, and eligible for six days annual leave, subject to exceptions for non sickness or accident-related absences. The amendments apply retrospectively from January 1 this year. The ruling also includes the Department of the Interior and several Australian institutions, affecting travel time entitlements and extending wage increases for certain labourers under revised classifications. The move widens leave rights and adjusts classifications for forestry and other sectors, boosting pay by about 3 shillings per worker where applicable.
