Disturbance Allowance. If an employee receives a phone call for assistance from the factory and he/she is able to resolve the problem then he/she will be paid “Disturbance Allowance”. The employee first called in this situation should be the availability rostered employee from the relevant trade. The payment will be equivalent to three (3) hours at ordinary (day) rate for the tradesperson concerned and will only be paid if the production/maintenance problem is successfully resolved. At times it may require a number of phone calls to resolve the one problem. If the problem cannot be resolved it may require the tradesperson to go to the factory as a call back and therefore “Disturbance Allowance” will not apply.

Disturbance allowance is a one-off payment to offset the incidental costs of moving such as: connection or reconnection of telephone service; stamp duty and any establishment fee payable on registration of the Employee’s motor vehicle; any establishment fee payable for transfer of the Employee’s driver’s licence; connection of public utilities; and other non-reimbursable costs. Where an Employee has received Disturbance Allowance at the new locality and subsequently relocates within the new locality, no further Disturbance Allowance is payable.

Current term and condition: • Employees who are transferred to another work location can claim additional miles travelled each day (return journey), the difference between the journey from home to the former workplace and from home to the new workplace. • The additional number of daily return miles are reimbursed at the rate of 19.0 xxxxx per mile. • The allowance is claimed by completing a Disturbance Allowance Application form followed by weekly or monthly claims forms. • The allowance is paid for a period of 30 months subject to conditions. This scheme applies to all employees of the Council, with the exception of those employees on a casual contract and those who are employed by schools operating with fully delegated personnel powers. Implications of withdrawal of current scheme Those currently in receipt of the allowance: no implications for employees currently in receipt. The allowance will continue to be paid in line with the terms of the scheme as set out for the agreed period (subject to conditions as set out in the scheme). .
