accrued days off.

maternity leave, stating the period of leave to be taken.
(d) An employee shall not be in breach of this order as a consequence
of failure to give the stipulated period of notice in accordance with
paragraph (c) hereof if such failure is occasioned by the confinement
occurring earlier than the presumed date.
(3) Transfer to a Safe-Job
Where in the opinion of a duly qualified medical practitioner, illness
or risks arising out of the pregnancy or hazards connected with the
work assigned to the employee make it inadvisable for the employee to
continue at her present work, the employee shall, if the employer
deems it practicable, be transferred to a safe job at the rate and on
the conditions attaching to that job until the commencement of
maternity leave.
If the transfer to a safe job is not practicable, the employee may, or
the employer may require the employee to, take leave for such period
as is certified necessary by a duly qualified medical practitioner.
Such leave shall be treated as maternity leave for the purposes of
subclauses (7), (8), (9) and (10) hereof.
(4) Variation of Period of Maternity Leave
(a) Provided the addition does not extend the maternity leave beyond 52
weeks, the period may be lengthened once only, save with the agreement

shortened by the employee giving not less than 14 days' notice in

(b) Where the pregnancy of an employee then on maternity leave
terminates other than by the birth of a living child, it shall be the
right of the employee to resume work at a time nominated by the
employer which shall not exceed four weeks from the date of notice in
writing by the employee to the employer that she desires to resume
work.
(6) Special Maternity Leave and Sick Leave
(a) Where the pregnancy of an employee not then on maternity leave
terminates after 28 weeks other than by the birth of a living child
then -
(i) she shall be entitled to such period of unpaid leave (to be
known as special maternity leave) as a duly qualified medical
practitioner certifies as necessary before her return to work; or
(ii) for illness other than the normal consequences of confinement
she shall be entitled, either in lieu of or in addition to special
maternity leave, to such paid sick leave as to which she is then
entitled and which a duly qualified medical practitioner certifies
as necessary before her return to work.
(b) Where an employee not then on maternity leave suffers illness
related to her pregnancy, she may take such paid sick leave as to
which she is then entitled and such further unpaid leave (to be known
as special maternity leave) as a duly qualified medical practitioner
certifies as necessary before her return to work, provided that the
aggregate of paid sick leave, special maternity leave and maternity
leave shall not exceed 52 weeks.
(c) For the purposes of subclauses (7), (8) and (9) hereof, maternity
leave shall include special maternity leave.

which she is capable of performing, she shall be entitled to a
position as nearly comparable in status and salary or wage to that
of her former position.

take any annual leave or long service leave or any part thereof to
which she is then entitled.
(b) Paid sick leave or other paid authorised award absences (excluding
annual leave or long service leave), shall not be available to an
employee during her absence on maternity leave.
(8) Effect of Maternity Leave on Employment
Notwithstanding any award, or other provision to the contrary, absence
on maternity leave shall not break the continuity of service of an
employee but shall not be taken into account in calculating the period
of service for any purpose of the award.
(9) Termination of Employment
(a) An employee on maternity leave may terminate her employment at any
time during the period of leave by notice given in accordance with

notice in writing to the employer given not less than four weeks prior

(19) The rates of pay in this award include arbitrated safety net
adjustments available since December 1993, under the Arbitrated Safety Net
Adjustment Principle.
These arbitrated safety net adjustments may be offset against any
equivalent amount in the rate of pay received by employees since 1
November 1991 above the rate prescribed in the Award, except where
such absorption is contrary to the terms of an industrial agreement.
Increases in rates of pay otherwise made under the State Wage Case
Principles, excepting those resulting from enterprise agreements, are
not to be used to offset arbitrated safety net adjustments.
(20) Where the term year of employment has been used in this clause, it
shall mean all service whether full time or part time and shall include
service of an equivalent nature in any Aboriginal Health Organisation.
Such service shall be calculated in periods of calendar years from the
date of commencement of work with the employer and by automatic
progression subject to satisfactory service.
(21) When an employee transfers from one grade or level to another, the
employee shall be placed at the next highest rate of pay from the wage
they were previously receiving and subclause (20) of this clause shall not
apply in these circumstances.
27. - DISPUTE SETTLING MECHANISM
(1) The parties to this Award recognise the traditional customs and nature
of the Aboriginal community controlled health services, and insofar as
they are consistent with the Industrial Relations Act, shall attempt to
use Aboriginal lore as a means of settling disputes which might arise.
In the event that such means do not settle the dispute, either party
may apply to the Western Australian Industrial Relations Commission to
determine the matter provided that with effect from 22 November 1997
it is required that persons involved in the question, dispute or
difficulty shall confer among themselves and make reasonable attempts
to resolve questions, disputes or difficulties before taking those
matters to the Commission.
(2) (a) This Appendix is inserted into the award/industrial agreement as a
result of legislation which came into effect on 16 January 1996
(Industrial Relations Legislation Amendment and Repeal Act 1995) and
further varied by legislation which came into effect on 23 May 1997
(Labour Relations Legislation Amendment Act 1997).
(b) Any dispute, question or difficulty arising under this award may be
subject to (1).
(c) Any settlement reached which is contrary to the terms of this award
shall not have effect unless or until that conflict is resolved.
28. - AWARD MODERNISATION AND ENTERPRISE CONSULTATION
(1) The parties to this award are committed to co-operating positively to
increase the efficiency and productivity of the industry, and to enhance
the career opportunities and job security of employees in the industry.
(2) At each service a consultative mechanism may be established by the
employer, or shall be established upon request by the employees or their
Union. The consultative mechanism and procedure shall be appropriate to
the size, structure and needs of that service and shall be agreed between
the employer and the Union.
(3) Where a consultative committee is established, it will be free to
address any matter which is consistent with the objectives of subclause
(1) of this clause. Where matters addressed concern award provisions then
the Union shall be notified and invited to attend consultative committees.
(4) Discussions that take place will have regard to the following
requirements:
(a) the changes sought shall not affect provisions reflecting State
standards;
(b) the majority of employees affected by the change at the service
must genuinely agree to the change;
(c) any agreement shall not, in the context of a total package, provide
for a set of conditions of a lesser standard than that provided by the
award and no employee shall have a lesser income as a result of the
conditions provided for in such agreement;
(d) the Union must be a party to any agreement which affects the wages
and/or conditions of employment of employees;
(e) neither the Union nor the employer shall unreasonably oppose any
agreement;
(f) any agreement relating to award matters shall be subject to
approval by the Western Australian Industrial Relations Commission
and, if approved, shall operate as a schedule to this award and take
precedence over any provision of this award to the extent of any
inconsistency;
(g) if agreement cannot be reached on a particular issue, then the
matter may be referred to the Western Australian Industrial Relations
Commission for determination.
29. - REVIEW OF CAREER STRUCTURE
The parties agree to review the Career Structure as set out in Clause 4. -
Definitions and Clause 26. - Wages, with a view to ensuring that the
structure remains relevant to the enterprises and meets the career
aspirations of the employees. The parties agree that the review/s will be
conducted jointly.
