Live Sewer Sample Clauses

Live Sewer. When Laborers are required to work in or with live sanitary sewage, they will receive a premium pay of forty dollars ($40.00) per day above their regular daily classification pay. Further, the Employer will pay for all necessary inoculations to prevent disease if requested by the employee and as recommended by the Department of Labor and Industries (Industrial Safety & Health Division).

Live Sewer. 9.10.1 The Parties agree that for the purposes of claiming any relevant ‘Live Sewer Allowance’ the correct and intended definition of live sewer exposure is those Employees who are working in direct physical contact with live sewerage or direct aerial contact with live sewerage work. 9.10.2 Live Sewer Allowance shall be paid at the rate of time and one-half for all Employees. 9.10.3 For the avoidance of doubt for ‘direct aerial contact’ to apply, the following criteria must be met: a) The Employee must be working in direct support of another Employee who is directly physically exposed to live sewerage and only for the period that the direct physical exposure exists; and b) The work requires the Employee to be in direct physical contact with tools, parts or fittings that are being used for the live sewerage work at that time; and/or c) The Employee would have to place some part of their body into the excavation or other space where the direct physical exposure is occurring for them to properly and safely complete the assigned task. 9.10.4 The payment of the allowance applies only for the period that the above criteria are being met and immediate clean-up at the worksite where the exposure occurs. 9.10.5 Employees who are on any day required to carry out work in connection with the release of blockages in sewerage lines, septic tanks and connections thereto shall be paid not less than hour four (4) hours at the appropriate rate. 9.10.6 Not-withstanding the above, the Parties recognise that the above was not properly applied for Fitzroy River Water, Network only Employees of the previous Rockhampton City Council prior to 14 March 2008. Therefore the employer agrees to accept claims in accordance with the current practice for those, and only those, Employees who were employed by Fitzroy River Water, Network Section on 14 March, 2008. This entitlement shall only apply to those Employees until such time as those Employees cease to be Employees of the employer or they take up a different role with the employer. To remove any doubt, the Employees who shall retain this entitlement have been identified by name in an exchange of letters between the parties. 9.10.7 The allowance shall be calculated using the base rate of pay applicable and not any annualised ‘All Purpose Rate’ that might apply for other purposes in accordance with the terms of this Agreement.
