IMPORTANT CHANGES

From 1 January 2010 NSW referred its industrial relations powers to the Commonwealth. All employees in NSW, except those in the local government and the state public sector, are covered by the Fair Work Act, the National Employment Standards and, following a 12 month transition period for non-constitutional corporations, the Modern Awards.

During the transition period, the state awards that currently apply to non-constitutional corporation employees will be known as Division 2B State Awards.

IMPORTANT CHANGES

These pay rates apply to employees of a non-constitutional corporation. Prior to 1 January 2010 these were referred to as Award Pay Rates.

IMPORTANT CHANGES

With the introduction of WorkChoices on 27 March 2006, constitutional corporations in NSW became part of the federal industrial relations system, and the terms and conditions of the state awards were preserved as a NAPSA (Notional Agreement Preserving a State Award). 

From 1 January 2010, constitutional corporations are covered by the Fair Work Act, the National Employment Standards and the Modern Awards, which specify minimum term and conditions of employment./ 

These NAPSA's have legally expired and are provided for reference only.

IMPORTANT CHANGES

These pay rates apply to employees employed by a constitutional corporation as at 31 December 2009. Employers will need to refer to these pay rates when transitioning to the Modern Award pay rates. Please refer to the Modern Awards for transitional arrangements.
