When is WorkChoices going?
The new Labor Federal Government has passed transitional legislation that now stops employers making any new AWAs, or individual contracts. Some employers who were already offering AWAs last year can still offer individual contracts called Individual Transitional Employment Agreements (ITEA) until January 2010, but only under very limited conditions. For almost all private sector organisations employing nurses, individual contracts can no longer be offered.
More substantial changes to the laws are expected in the second half of 2008, which are expected to change the way bargaining over wages and conditions of employment is conducted.
