2. By deleting the example appearing in clause 16.3(a) and inserting the following:

For example:

For an employee who commenced their apprenticeship on or after 1 January 2014, has not completed year 12, and is undertaking their 2nd year of training, the ordinary rate of pay is calculated as follows:

Ordinary
hourly rate

1. Determine the relevant percentage from the table in clause 16.3(a)(ii) =

60% of the Aluminium Worker Grade 4

2. Calculate the minimum hourly rate of pay =

60% of $23.67= $14.20 (minimum hourly rate)

3. Add the hourly work conditions and disability allowance from clause 18.2(b) = $1.07

Ordinary hourly rate = $14.20 + $1.07

= $15.27 per hour


Ordinary
weekly rate of pay

1. Determine the relevant percentage from the table in clause 16.3(a)(ii) =

60% of the Aluminium Worker Grade 4

2. Calculate the minimum weekly rate of pay =

60% of $899.50 = $539.70 (minimum weekly rate)

3. Add the weekly work conditions and disability allowance from clause 18.2(b) = $40.48
Ordinary weekly rate = $539.70 + $40.48

= $580.18 per week
