Laundry Workers. (a) The employer may pay a gratuity to an employee who has qualified in terms of sub-clause (1) and who has had no less than 10 years’ current continuous service (as defined in Clause 4, sub-clause (5)(b).) Part time service is not to be converted to its whole time equivalent for the purpose of establishing eligibility.
(b) Gratuities may be paid to the spouse or if no surviving spouse, the dependent child(ren) of employees who died before qualifying as in
(1) above or who died after qualifying but before receiving a gratuity. Spouse is defined as a person with whom a marriage contract has been made or who is in a de facto relationship.
(c) The calculation of a gratuity entitlement shall be in accordance with the scales detailed below, provided that the amount of any gratuity previously received in respect of service taken into account in the calculation shall be deducted.
(d) Where part time service is involved, the gratuity should be calculated to reflect this. The number of hours per week employed during the years of service is calculated as a percentage of the number of hours represented by a full week and this percentage is applied to the rate of pay established for gratuity purposes.
(e) An employee who is granted leave without pay and who remains in the service of Eastbay Health will, for the purposes of calculating the gratuity, have such leave aggregated with other service for gratuity purposes.
(f) Except in the case of cleaners, orderlies, kitchen staff and domestic supervisors:
(i) For the purposes of establishing eligibility for a gratuity, total board service may be aggregated, whether this be part time or whole time or a combination of both at different periods;
(ii) Gratuities shall be frozen as at 31 December 1998, with the calculation for any payment being based on years of qualifying service as at 31 December 1998 and also on the employee’s salary rate as at that same date; a qualifying service shall be rounded up to the next complete year of service as at 31 December 1998;
(iii) Employees with less than ten year’s service as at 31 December 1998 the maximum gratuity to be frozen shall be calculated on the basis of 3.1 consecutive days for each year of service.
