Hi there. Could someone assist me in the interpretation of the below clause. I am not familiar with this wording and would like to know how this differs from the standard entitlements under the FWA of 152 hours each year?
What does it mean when it refers to the 'by reference to 144 and 180 hours'??
Annual Leave: Every employee other than a casual employee shall be entitled to annual leave under the Fair Work Act.
• In respect of periods of work other than continuous shift work, on a pro – rata basis calculated by reference to 144 hours of ordinary time per annum at the weekly All purpose rate of pay for ordinary hours
• In respect of periods of continuous shift work – on a pro-rata basis calculated by reference to 180 hours of ordinary time per annum at the weekly All purpose rate of pay for ordinary hours worked on continuous shift work
much appreciated
