Common use of Part Time/ Job Sharing Clause in Contracts

Part Time/ Job Sharing. (a) The Parties recognise the value of enhancing employment opportunities for workers who may require part-time work arrangements due to their personal circumstances. Such circumstances may include advanced age, infirmity, family and caring responsibilities or the desire for gradual transition to retirement. In pursuit of this objective, such Employees may be engaged on a part-time basis, subject to prior consultation and agreement between the Employer and the Union on each occasion. (b) The Parties recognise that predecessor enterprise agreements have generally not provided for part time employment. It is the intention of the Parties to provide for only a limited expansion of part time work opportunities under this Agreement to achieve the above objective. (c) A part-time Employee is an Employee who works an average of less than 36 hours per week and has reasonably predictable hours of work. (d) A part-time Employee will receive the same rates terms and conditions of employment as a full-time daily-hire or weekly hire Employee as the case may be, except all accruals and contributions to entitlement funds (including Incolink, superannuation etc.) will be made on a pro-rata basis based on the part time Employee’s ordinary hours. To be clear, part time employment pursuant to this clause is the only circumstance under this Agreement for which pro-rata payment of these entitlement funds applies. (e) The Employee’s LeavePlus contribution will be in accordance with the applicable scheme rules. (f) Before commencing part time employment, the Employer, the Employee and the Union will agree in writing to the following: (i) that the Employee is engaged part time; (ii) upon the ordinary hours to be worked by the Employee, the days and hours upon which the Employee will perform work and the commencing times for the work; (iii) upon the Employee’s classification; and (iv) upon the period of part time employment. (g) The terms of an agreement to work part time may be varied, in writing, by agreement between the Employer, the Employee and the Union. (h) The Employer will provide a copy of the agreement to the Employee and the Union and any subsequent variation will be in writing. (i) A part-time Employee may work up to eight (8) ordinary hours each day, Monday to Friday, and not more than 36 ordinary hours each week averaged over a two-week period. Any additional hours may be worked by agreement only. Such agreement may include the application of penalty rates for any additional hours worked, even where the total ordinary hours on any given day remain less than 8. (j) Any hours of work performed outside the spread of ordinary hours or in excess of 8 hours in any one day must be paid at the appropriate penalty rate(s). (k) The RDO system prescribed by clause 38 will apply to a part-time Employee on a pro rata basis. This means that 0.1 of an hour for each ordinary hours worked and paid leave taken will not be paid but will accrue towards an RDO. When the RDO falls, the Employee will be paid an amount based on their RDO accrual. (l) The Parties recognise that the preferred mode of employment under this Agreement will remain full-time direct employment and the requirements of a full-time role are in no way diminished by the provision of part time work. The Parties recognise that one effective means of maintaining productivity levels and ensuring appropriate coverage on site may be via job sharing arrangements, whereby Employees are engaged to work complementary hours of work such that the combined hours of work and like aspects of employment for two employees are practically equivalent to those of one full time employee. Examples of potential job-sharing arrangements are set out in Appendix O. (m) The parties commit to the regularly monitoring and evaluation of the effectiveness of these measures. Adjustments and improvements will be made as necessary to ensure continuous progress towards the objectives of this clause. (n) Nothing in this clause is intended to limit the rights of Employees under any relevant legislation.
