Higher Duties Allowance. (a) Subject to sub-clauses (b), (c) and (d) of this clause, an employee who is called upon to relieve an employee in a higher classification or is called upon to act in a vacant position of a higher classification, shall be entitled to receive for the period of relief or the period during which he or she so acts the minimum payment for such higher classification.
(b) The provisions of sub clause (a) of this clause shall not apply where the employee of the higher classification is off duty pursuant to sub-clause 14.2(m) - Arrangement of Hours, except insofar as a Director of Nursing accumulates days off for a continuous period of one week or more; nor when an employee in a higher grade is absent from duty by reason of his/her additional day off duty as a consequence of working a 38 hour week.
(c) Further, the provisions of sub-clause (a) of this clause shall not apply where a Director of Nursing is absent from duty for a period of three working days or less for any reason other than pursuant to sub-clause 14.2(m) - Arrangement of Hours.

Higher Duties Allowance a. The employer shall approve payment of a higher duties allowance to an employee who is required to undertake the full duties and responsibilities of a higher graded position during the temporary absence of the occupant of that position, and who competently discharges those higher duties. Payment at a lesser rate shall be approved for an employee who is required to undertake only some of the duties and responsibilities of positions at a higher level.

This is subject to the employee carrying out the full duties and responsibilities for a minimum qualifying period of five consecutive working days and subject to such conditions as the employer may approve. Payment of the allowance will be backdated to include the previous five days. These conditions must be met on each occasion that the higher duties are performed.

Higher Duties Allowance. Where a role needs to be filled for 2 or more working weeks, higher duties allowance will be paid to any temporary occupants of the role acting at a classification higher than their substantive classification level. Higher duties allowance will be equal to the difference between the employees’ current salary and the salary that would be payable if they were promoted to the higher classification level, or a higher amount determined by the Commissioner. The Commissioner may determine a higher amount of higher duties allowance, having regard to factors including: previous periods of higher duties at or above the proposed higher duties classification; performance, including during previous periods of higher duties; and relevant experience and/or skills. Where an employee is found to be eligible for salary progression at their acting classification level they will receive an appropriate increase in the rate of higher duties allowance. The employee’s salary level will be retained for all future periods of acting regardless of elapsed time. Where an employee is assigned only part of the higher duties, the Commissioner will determine the amount of allowance payable. Higher duties allowance will be payable while an employee is acting at a higher classification as part of a job sharing arrangement where the duration of the arrangement is at least 2 working weeks. The Commissioner may shorten the qualifying period for higher duties allowance on a case-by-case basis including if the Commissioner determines there are special circumstances associated with the higher duties, including the requirement to exercise significant delegated authority.

Employer superannuation contributions will be paid on behalf of employees during periods of paid leave that count as service.

Employer contributions will be made for all employees covered by this Agree...
