PRELIMINARY Title
This Agreement shall be known as the Queensland Early Childhood Education Enterprise Agreement 2011. 1.2
Agreement Coverage (Parties)
This Agreement shall apply to the members of the Australian Community Services Employers Association – Queensland Union of Employers (ACSEA) who are listed in Schedule C of this Agreement and their employees and the Independent Education Union of Australia – Queensland and Northern Territory Branch (IEUA). 1.3
Date and Period of Operation
This Agreement will commence seven days from the date of approval by Fair Work Australia and shall remain in force until 31 December 2011.

Intention
It is the intention of the parties to enter into a formal Agreement which continues the substance of the Agreement content which applied during 2010. Minor changes are required to reflect the move to an Agreement under the Fair Work Act 2009 (Cth) (the Act). Further clauses are necessary to maintain employees’ existing entitlements to Long Service Leave and to facilitate the Government’s requirement for 15 hours of educational programme. These changes are set out in Part 2 (Operative Provisions). 2.
OPERATIVE PROVISIONS
2.1
Relationship with other industrial instruments

The content of the Queensland Early Childhood Education Certified Agreement 2009 will continue to apply to employees and employers covered by this Agreement, except where the content of that Agreement is varied by this Agreement. A copy of the Queensland Early Childhood Education Certified Agreement 2009 is attached as Schedule B.
2.1.2
It is acknowledged that the National Employment Standards (NES) apply, as legislation, to employees and employers covered by this Agreement.
2.2
Grievance and dispute settling procedure
2.2.1
If a dispute relates to: (a) a matter arising under the Agreement; or (b) the National Employment Standards; or (c) whether the employer had reasonable business grounds for refusing a request under the National Employment Standards for flexible working arrangements or extended unpaid parental leave; this term sets out procedures to settle the dispute.

Page 3 of 30
2.2.3
In the first instance, the parties to the dispute must try to resolve the dispute at the workplace level, by discussions between the employee or employees and relevant supervisors and/or management.
2.2.4
If discussions at the workplace level do not resolve the dispute, a party to the dispute may refer the matter to Fair Work Australia.
2.2.5
Fair Work Australia may deal with the dispute in 2 stages: (a)
(b)
Fair Work Australia will first attempt to resolve the dispute as it considers appropriate, including by mediation, conciliation, expressing an opinion or making a recommendation; and if Fair Work Australia is unable to resolve the dispute at the first stage, Fair Work Australia may then: (i) arbitrate the dispute; and (ii) make a determination that is binding on the parties.
Note: If Fair Work Australia arbitrates the dispute, it may also use the powers that are available to it under the Act. A decision that Fair Work Australia makes when arbitrating a dispute is a decision for the purpose of Div 3 of Part 5.1 of the Act. Therefore, an appeal may be made against the decision.
2.2.6
While the parties are trying to resolve the dispute using the procedures in this term: (a)
(b)
an employee must continue to perform his or her work as he or she would normally unless he or she has a reasonable concern about an imminent risk to his or her health or safety; and an employee must comply with a direction given by the employer to perform other available work at the same workplace, or at another workplace, unless: (i) the work is not safe; or (ii) applicable occupational health and safety legislation would not permit the work to be performed; or (iii) the work is not appropriate for the employee to perform; or (iv) there are other reasonable grounds for the employee to refuse to comply with the direction.

The parties to the dispute agree to be bound by a decision made by Fair Work Australia in accordance with this clause and subject to any right of appeal under the Act.

OTHER ISSUES
4.1
Salary Sacrifice
4.1.1
An employee will be entitled to salary sacrifice a portion of their salary to any benefit which does not attract a Fringe benefit Tax liability.
4.1.2
Where a salary sacrifice arrangement is entered into it will be recorded in writing.
4.1.3
Where such an arrangement is entered into, the employee’s total salary shall be reduced by an amount equivalent to that nominated in the arrangement.
4.1.4
The employee’s salary used to calculate superannuation contributions, leave loading, annual leave or vacation entitlements, long service leave, severance and termination payment entitlements, will be the gross base salary as per Schedule A – Wages of this Agreement the employee would receive if not taking part in the salary packaging arrangement.
4.1.5
Salary packaging arrangements may be altered once per annum.
4.1.6
The employer reserves the right to outsource the administration of salary packaging arrangements to a provider appointed by the employer.
4.1.7
The employer will meet the cost associated with salary sacrifice to superannuation.
4.1.8
The employee may be required to meet the cost of salary sacrifice arrangements to benefits other than superannuation.

The Queensland Independent Education and Care Superannuation Scheme shall be the only approved scheme, as defined by clause 5.4.3(c) of the Award, for employees subject to this Agreement.
Queensland Early Childhood Education Enterprise Agreement 2011
Page 16 of 30
4.2.2
The employers recognise that an increased employer contribution combined with an employee co-payment, delivers a substantial benefit to the employee’s superannuation savings, and hence their long term future.
4.2.3
Any additional superannuation contributions from employees is a matter of employee choice within the options available. The payment to be made by employing authorities will be subsumed into any payment mandated by Superannuation Guarantee Charge legislation, if any such payment is mandated.
4.2.4
The employing authority shall make available to all employees the following options: (a)
As of 1st October 2006 , where an employee makes a contribution of at least 1% to superannuation, the employer will contribute an additional 1% (that is a total contribution of 10%) to the employee’s superannuation; and
(b)
As of 1st October 2007 , where an employee makes a contribution of at least 2% to superannuation, the employer will contribute an additional 2% (that is a total contribution of 11%) to the employee’s superannuation; and
(c)
As of 1st October 2008 , where an employee makes a contribution of at least 3% to superannuation, the employer will contribute an additional 1% (that is a total contribution of 12%) to the employee’s superannuation.
4.2.5 So as to remove doubt, an employee’s contribution to superannuation identified in this clause 4.2 can be made by way of salary sacrifice in accordance with clause 4.1. 4.3
Hours of Work
4.3.1 The ordinary hours of duties for a teacher shall not exceed 37.5 hours per week of which not more than 27.5 hours shall relate to the teaching of a educational programme; 4.3.2 The ordinary hours of duty for all employees, other than teachers, shall not exceed 38 hours per week; 4.3.3 A part-time teacher shall be entitled to time for preparation and other duties (not being the teaching of an educational programme) on the ratio of one (1) hour for every five (5) hours of teaching. 4.4

4.5
Payment for full year or proportion of year and Annual Leave Loading
4.5.1 An employee upon appointment shall be paid as from the date upon which the employee commenced duty, provided that an employee who has worked (or has been granted leave by the employer), for each day of the standard year at a particular centre, shall be paid for a full calendar year.

Page 17 of 30
