Overseas Work. Employees may be requested by Ergon Energy to travel overseas on business. While working overseas employees will where possible, be entitled to the same standard of accommodation and meals as would be provided by Ergon Energy in Australia. Where available, premium economy or equivalent seating will be provided for employees undertaking such travel. Ergon Energy will reimburse the employee for all business related expenses incurred and provide the employee with a corporate credit card, traveller’s cheques, cash or other suitable form of recompense. Ergon Energy will reimburse the employee for actual expenses incurred for laundry, airport taxes, tips (where customary in the country), and transport to and from airports and work places. At no cost to the employee, Ergon Energy will arrange all necessary visas and allow the employee paid time to obtain a passport, and to obtain any immunisation requirements prior to departure. Where workers compensation does not apply because of the work or work location, Ergon Energy will arrange for and pay the premiums for personal accident insurance to cover the employee. Ergon Energy will ensure that the employee will not be disadvantaged in terms of any accident benefit that would normally be available under Queensland WorkCover legislation. Ergon Energy will compensate the employee for any financial losses directly incurred as a result of the employee working overseas. Employees will therefore be recompensed for financial losses arising from, but not limited to, currency exchange variations, cost of living differences between Australia and the country in which the work is being performed, reasonable telephone calls to Australia, and personal taxation adjustments. Where an employee who is working overseas for such an extended period that the employee is no longer required to pay Australian taxes, and/or is required to pay tax at a rate lower than what would normally apply had the employee been working in Australia, the employee will be entitled to the benefit by way of any reduction in taxation. If the employee is required to pay tax at a higher rate than what the employee would have been required to pay when working in Australia, Ergon Energy will, in addition to the employee’s usual wages, pay the additional tax on behalf of the employee. Ergon Energy will prior to the employee’s departure, provide any current advice, which may have been issued by the Department of Foreign Affairs concerning the country in which the emp...
