Updated conditions take effect 1 February 2012

The union negotiated Enterprise Agreement voted up in December has been approved by Fair Work Australia. The Agreement, and the conditions contained in it, take effect on 1 February 2012.

This approval formalises the annual safety net increase for the vast majority of IAG staff who are achieving expectations in their roles, in conjunction with the guaranteed pool allocation of 3% for 2012.

It also means that IAG employees can now access higher loadings for Sunday work, more paid parental leave, and mid service leave for employees with 7, 8 or 9 years' service.

With mid-year reviews starting in March this year, it's a good idea to familiarise yourself with the provisions in the Agreement around steps you can take if you don't agree with your review outcome, or if you have concerns about the process.

Shortly the FSU will make material available to members to guide you through the Agreement, and help you get the most from it.
