Lecturers on FHA will work the flexible hours arrangements as outlined in the provisions of this clause as required by their employer. (d) Lecturers may undertake a mix of ‘traditional lecturing’ and ‘non-traditional VET delivery’. (e) It is acknowledged that all lecturers delivering similar VET may not work the same mix of duties. (f) No other clause of this Agreement relating to matters where the employer and employee are required to reach agreement applies to entering FHA. (g) The succeeding provisions of this clause must be read and interpreted in a manner that is consistent with sub-clauses 37.1 (a) to 37.1 (f).
