PN Coal Aggregate update

The Division has been in dispute with PN Coal since March over the non-payment of a provision of their EA in relation to the 9.5% Aggregate Allowance.

The dispute revolves around whether the 9.5% is applied to an employee’s classification rate of pay (RTBU position) or a fixed amount irrespective of the employee’s classification rate (PN’s position).

The matter has been listed for hearing at FWA on August 16 and 17.
