We have commenced this matter on our own initiative under section 160 of the Fair Work Act 2009 to deal with a potential ambiguity in award specific redundancy provisions in the identified modern awards.
The six awards for review are:
Joinery and Building Trades Award 2020
Mannequins and Models Award 2020
Manufacturing and Associated Industries and Occupations Award 2020
Sugar Industry Award 2020
Textile, Clothing, Footwear and Associated Industries Award 2020
