Common use of Fares and Travel Allowance Clause in Contracts

Fares and Travel Allowance. At the commencement of this Agreement, the Employer will elect one of the following as their radius CenterPoint to which the fares and travel allowances within this clause apply, the address(es) of the Employer which is closest to the site, or worker. (see Appendix 6),: or Brisbane GPO or Sunshine Coast or Gold Coast. The Employer will make their election by advising the Union in writing of the chosen radius at the time of signing the Agreement. If the Employer does not advise the Union of their elected radius, the default radius will apply. The default radius is that radius from the closest address of the Employer (detailed in Appendix 6). The Employer must notify each employee in writing at the commencement of this Agreement or at commencement of employment of the base CenterPoint that the employees fairs and travel is calculated from. For clarity this may only be one address. If the employer plans to change the base CenterPoint that the employees’ fairs and travel is calculated from consultation will occur in accordance with clause 13. In the case of an Employee sent to distant work (as defined in this Agreement) the radius is the 75km radius from the place at which the Employee resides for that distant work. If the Employee’s starting and finishing address is the workshop or office, then Fares and Travel Allowance is not applicable.
