District Specific Provisions. (grand-parented) ALL Districts The following provisions shall apply to employees who were employed prior to the effective date of this agreement: Any caseload midwife employed prior to the commencement of this agreement shall retain allowances and reimbursements bestowed by a previous variation and payable on the day prior to ratification of this document. Although best endeavours have been made to capture these below, the content may not be complete. Those employees that were entitled to annual leave above the standard clause (13) shall retain their entitlement. Telephone reimbursement payable on the day prior to ratification of this document shall continue. Caseload midwives shall be reimbursed for professional fees incurred by belonging to the New Zealand College of Midwives, and indemnity insurance cover from the NZNO up to a maximum of $555. The employer may reimburse the employee up to $100 per annum (on presentation of official receipts) as a contribution towards the cost of one (1) membership of a professional association that is directly relevant to the employee’s duties. Provided that where the employee works for another organization, or in private practice, the employer will only be required to pay the amount on a pro-rata basis. Notwithstanding the above provisions where the employer requires the employee to be a member of a relevant professional association as a requirement of their position, e.g. to meet the requirements of a funding contract, the employee may be reimbursed up to the full membership cost subject to the presentation of official receipts.
