Service NSW Award: Rostered Employees and Public Holidays
The PSA has been in a lengthy dispute with Service NSW after members raised concerns that rosters were either being changed to exclude them from certain public holidays or they were not receiving public holiday pay. This raised questions about the interpretation and application of clauses 17.5 and 17.7 of the Award.
After further discussions with the Department, we are pleased to advise Members that we have reached a mutually agreed position as to how the clauses should be read and therefore consider the dispute resolved for the majority of employees.
We are still discussing how this affects the Travel and Recreation cluster and are hoping to have this resolved in the coming weeks.
Service NSW will be providing a ‘Fact Sheet’ to clarify this for all staff in the near future.
Your union will continue to work on a resolution for the Travel and Recreation cluster.
