Coverage

This industry award covers employers throughout Australia in the general retail industry and

their employees in the classifications listed in the award to the exclusion of any other modern award. The award does not cover employers covered by the following awards: - the Fast Food Industry Award 2010;

- the Meat Industry Award 2010; - the Hair and Beauty Industry Award 2010; or - the Pharmacy Industry Award 2010.

The award does not cover employees who are covered by a modern enterprise award, or an enterprise instrument (within the meaning of the Fair Work (Transitional Provisions and

Consequential Amendments) Act 2009 (Cth)), or employers in relation to those employees. The award does not cover employees who are covered by a State reference public sector

modern award, or a State reference public sector transitional award (within the meaning of the Fair Work (Transitional Provisions and Consequential Amendments) Act 2009 (Cth)), or employers in relation to those employees.

This award covers any employer which supplies labour on an on - hire basis in the industry set out in this instrument in respect of on - hire employees in classifications covered by this

award, and those on - hire employees, while engaged in the performance of work for a business in that industry. This subclause operates subject to the exclusions from coverage in this award.

trainees engaged by a group training service hosted by a company to perform work at a location where the activities described herein are being performed. This subclause operates subject to the exclusions from coverage in this award.

Where an employer is covered by more than one award, an employee of that employer is covered by the award classification which is most appropriate to the work performed by the

employee and to the environment in which the employee normally performs the work. NOTE: Where there is no classification for a particular employee in this award it is possible that the employer and that employee are covered by an award with occupational coverage.

Penalty Guide

The penalty guide below contains information about the penalties that are provided for in this award.

For full-time and part-time employees, the penalty amount in this table should be applied to the relevant rate of pay, being the base hourly rate plus any applicable all-purpose allowances.

For casual and part-time with loading employees, the way in which the penalty amount is applied depends upon the interaction between the casual/part-time loading and the penalty rate. The code displayed in the 'Amount' column of the penalty guide tells you which of the following calculations to use. If there is no code, the penalty does not apply to the casual/part-time with loading employees.

Code Casual/Part Time Rates Calculation

A (rate of pay + casual/part time loading) x penalty

B (base hourly rate x casual/part time loading) + (rate of pay x penalty)

C rate of pay + penalty

D rate of pay + casual/part time loading

E rate of pay x penalty (no casual/part time loading)

F (rate of pay + penalty) x casual/part time loading

Casual/part-time loading is generally calculated on the base hourly rate, whereas a penalty is calculated on the relevant rate of pay, including the base

hourly rate plus any applicable all-purpose allowances.

Pay Guide - Background

This guide provides information on wages, loadings and allowances.

Employers that an award applies to must provide at least the minimum terms and conditions in that award to all employees to whom the award applies.

One of the responsibilities of the Fair Work Ombudsman is to ensure compliance with the Fair Work Act 2009.

If an employer is able to demonstrate that they have paid at least the rates published in this guide, including wages, allowances and loadings, the Fair Work Ombudsman will be

satisfied that the employer has met those obligations under the award. The employer will need to have paid the wage rate for all hours worked and for the correct classification for the work the employee does.

The Fair Work Act 2009 requires that time and wages records be kept and pay slips issued. Employers will also need to demonstrate that this requirement has been complied with.

Who is not covered by this guide?

Despite the coverage provisions of this guide, conditions in this guide do not apply to an employee or employer while the employee or employer is covered by one of the following agreements:

Australian Workplace Agreements (AWA) Certified agreements (made before 27 March 2006)

Collective agreements (made between 27 March 2006 and 30 June 2009) Enterprise agreements (made after 01 July 2009)
